No, but it's just one of the anecdotes that go with the terrain, like leaving a box or two of cards or a stack of tapes or your dinner on top of a 1403N1 when it ran out of forms.. How well sealed were the raised floors? I ask this because i recall an episode or two where a disk drive would spring a leak and make a beautiful slippery pool on the floor, just waiting for the next operator to dash by. I always wondered how much of the stuff made it to the subfloor. --Chuck
