My aunt worked at Calcomp (not sure for how long but defintely in the
late 70s), I think in QA. She sent me a couple test plots on some
plastic back then and I still have them.
I think it would be funny to rescue the plotter and send it to her, but
it would probably need to be rescued again soon afterward.
