Back a couple of years ago when my Mom passed away, I was forced to go through
the closet in my old bedroom. There was stuff in there I hadn't seen since
1969. I found an old circulal "Octal" slide rule, my 360 green card and an
bunch of JCL decks of programs I had written at the time. I tossed all of it
(under the watchful eye of my wife). The only thing I kept was an "Automated
Data Processing" book (my first computer text book) that highlighted the
technology at the time including IBM 026 keypunches, etc. I even had a couple
of tape rolls. I couldn't even read them anymore. I can still read 80 cards
though.
