When I interned with the Social Security Administration, I was tasked with
crawling under the raised floor, pulling cable.  As well as the various scenery
already mentioned by others, I came up at the other end with several dozen
9-track tape write rings.  I stuck them on my (then skinny) arms as I crawled,
The older guys, waiting at the other end, laughed and told me stories of the
write ring battles that went on "back in the day".
