Ämne: Re: Use of "sequence numbering" in current HLASM source?

I would prefer the 083 sorter.

Nothing made me appreciate computers and mag tape so much as sorting 6 million 
cards on 12 columns, the first of which was alphanumeric.  18 machines, 5 
people, days

and yes I would like to be buried face down 9 edge first. :-)
