I'm trying to find a cartoon from late 70s - early 80s, probably published 
in BYTE, which showed a stereotypical(?) system programmer, hunched at his 
desk over a coding sheet, with empty coffee cup and overflowing ashtray, 
behind a large pane of glass labeled "In case of system crash, break 
glass" or words to that effect.  At the time i thought it was hilarious;  
now, i'm the programmer at the desk.  Would really like to find a copy of 
the cartoon, if only for hysterical purposes.
