Also, many of us remember filling in a coding form, then either punching
a card deck or having one punched, then handing it to the operator, then
coming back to collect the output (normally error messages :-)). I wonder
if people will even rememebr that went on in, say, 50 years time.
I used to have to fill out coding forms, put them in the internal mail
with a run request and get a printout in the mail a day or so later.
It made debugging somewhat slow :-)
