Good god, I think we shocked them into silence! (no mean feat on this board)

I barely remember Assembler, I believe we used it while fooling around with UC Berkeley's IBMs. Wrote odd little games as I remember, high school students sneaking into the basement and talking the tech's into bad behavior. LOL

I could scan the cards and pick out salient code but really couldn't read them.

Fortunately most of the programs I did on TTY tape were fairly short and if I remember right we could snip out good sections and dup them into our main program tape. Gads that was a few years ago.

Anyway I am almost certain that Nate the great's "analog ebooks" are a cover for some extremely covert attempt to resurrect or salvage some poor companies or countries programs.



BTW did you ever use Hermes Mike L? (for those of you who don't know that was email before there was email or the internet for that matter.)
