Re: Strange thing in STRDBG

Or pulled out 1 or 2 and dropped them behind your desk!

Just out of high school, part of my work at Northern Pacific in St. Paul was to carry boxes of Hollerith cards to archive storage. I promise y'all, I never dropped one! If you were on a late train in the late whatever's, it wasn't my fault!

Toot! Toot!
