And just this morning I had been wondering about those who have
contributed to this thread, wondering how they could remember so much
detail (even if some memory had a few parity checks). Thus, how much
truly important personal information had been paged out of their real

No, the IBM 2671 paper tape device was a reader only. The paper tape
punches were from older systems. I guess paper tape got punched on
teletype machines in S/360 days. I had a customer with a 2671.
I started keeping IBM sales manual pages that were discard this page

I can remember as a consode operator running a 360/30 in 1401 compatibility
mode (dialing in the card reader address and loading in the 'CID' deck). I can
also remember settubg the 'F' switch to signal the last reel of tape being read
in on a 2401 tape drive.
We also ran that machine in normal
Trivia.. Recently I went to the Titan-II ICBM silo (now a museum) just

Paper tape is immune from magnetic interference (of course, back then
there was no public documentation of EMF weapons, right?).

If the radar signal was strong enough to wipe the core, I wonder what it did to
the synapses of the person posted to guard the door. In the early '80s, the

After a few days, many of the officers started complaining
When I worked at a bank, we had Ollivetti teller terminals that punched paper
tape transactions as well as them being entered into the system. If the
computer systems were down, the tellers could still record transactions on to
the paper tape. When the systems came back up, they had a paper
In the 1970's, a friend of mine's dad worked at NARF (Naval Air Rework

You couldn't fee the paper tape in backwards, the sprocket holes wouldn't line
up. However, you could feed the tape in backwards if it was also up side down.
Now that really took someone with some smarts to do.
