dirt has been known to be found in most places in

doing a wired-or and wired-and depends on reading IC specifications
for specific chips. It is what design engineers do...
Sorry for being so obtuse! Phrase meant: "wire OR/etc was very
common in RTL".
I tried wired-OR once in TTL, didn't like the results :-)
