Re: [U2] FOLD can mutilate {Unclassified}
One thing I remember from the 029 days was correction stickers for punch cards. If you needed to correct a mispunched card, you could cover the hole with a sticker. Always wondered how many came off in high speed card readers. . . . Steve At 09:54 AM 5/30/06 +1000, you wrote: At 10:10 29/05/06 -0400, you wrote: You guys had punch cards?
