The first computer I ever programmed was an IBM 1620 Mod 2 back in '68.
Does that make me an old enough computer guy?
In '68 I was using a teletype terminal with paper tape to store programs.
Now I encounter confusion when I ask that posts in scientific forums
copy and paste text from the "terminal" into a post because their screen
snapshot is difficult to read and cuts off critical information at the end
of a long line.
