Punch cards - what memories. My deck got shuffled when I rode my motorcycle over the train tracks. They were strapped to the back. were..... Talk about 52 pickup.
Another student and I invented the first word processsor I 'd ever used. I was so bad at typing, I figured I could correct my errors with redoing any particular punch card. I proceeded to type in my term paper. Somehow I forgot my "end of data code" at the end of the term paper. The machine read everybody elses punch cards as if they were part of my term paper. 500 pages later somebody noticed there was a problem. OOPS! (Thats's not object oriented programing)
