Reminds me of an old tagline: /* The more sophisticated the technology, the more vulnerable it is to primitive attack. People often overlook the obvious. -Dr Who, 1978 */
And also, come to think of it: /* It is important to realize that any lock can be picked with a big enough hammer. -Sun System & Network Admin manual */ --- Bob Bridges, robhbrid...@gmail.com, cell 336 382-7313 -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> On Behalf Of Rick Troth Sent: Wednesday, November 8, 2023 09:50 One great thing about punched cards (and printed paper, and even such things as paper tape) is that they don't suffer degaussing or other such high-tech ailments.
