When you're there, don't miss "The story about Mel". By the
way... we have a Mel on our mailing list... :-)

Little history lesson from far away:

In approx. 1950, the IBM N.O.R.C. processed numerical values
only. There were no plans to make the printer print characters
because "no need for this" was seen. Even the need for a
programming language like FORTRAN wasn't seen. :-)
