In deference to Al's nit-picking
All of the documentation I've looked at from the time called them "punched"

which is why I said "historically accurate". I'd like to know about any
books or manufacturer's docs from the 50's or 60's that refer to them
as "punch" cards.
I also just checked the documentation on Documation card readers, and they
REQUIRE that the notch be on the leading edge. This is a major PITA
for me right now as I try to read mixed-notch decks.
Looks like it may be an easy fix though (ignore the top column in the logic
detecting the card edges).
