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. . . .

You guys had punch cards? We had to use Sears catalog pages, cut to
the proper size....
Yeah, maybe..... Well do I recall.....one of my early DP jobs was putting
the chads back in punch cards so they could be re-used.....and "Quality
Control" insisted I put the right ones back in the right holes..... I also
remember being sent to the ironmongers for a "long weight" to make the job
easier......<grin>
