Quoted from Jackontherocks:You have syactic nerve pain down your league for no reason but back pain that comes out of nowhere

Quoted from yfz450:...You know what Telnet is.
Emacs and edline editors. Kermit protocol and when z-modem came out it was the first file transfer protocol that would pick up the file download where you left off when you lost your 300 baud connection. It was great for the huge 100kb files you were downloading from your local BBS.
I worked for ITT in the 80's and my remote computer was a 300 baud acoustic couple, thermal paper terminal. You had to shove the old-style phone in the back into two rubber cups.
How about programming on paper tape or Hollerith punch cards.
Quoted from poppapin:Remember when you could smoke on a plane?
Yes, the smoking area was from the wing to the back.
And my high school had a smoking lounge also.
The schools also had gun clubs.
