That would certainly do it! But it's not very fast since I would have to get up from my comfy chair.

I think we should stick with this list for as long as possible.

1) What is the absolute best way to clear a register?
2) Exactly how many cycles does it take to do an LA instruction?
3) Is EBCDIC really that bad?

4) Funky late-night experiences with data cells, optical readers and long-gone 
software
5) Why IBM's implementation of Posix time zones is flawed
6) Is JCL really that bad?

We probably should change the subject.  Some suggestions:

I was working on contract with a major bank during the run up to Y2K.
  The bank was so confident that they had the issue licked that they laid
off all of the contractors in November.   I found another contract
immediately, but my new shop also had things well in hand, so I ended up 
partying that night.  Neither shop had any significant issues during the 
century change.

I still have about half the Y2K books I bought, figure they'll go with
the next Great Purge. Circa 1995 I thought of doing "The Y2K Handbook"
(like "The REXX Handbook" and two VM/ESA handbooks co-edited with Phil
Smith) but never got around to it. Likely for the best, considering
the tsunami of books published.
