Thank You!

Carl & Jerry were way before my time, but one summer vacation I ran out of science books in our library's children section. So I got permission to start reading all the back issues of Pop Electronics on microfilm. Found lots of cool stuff from back before I was born!

Dewd! I recognized the title of this one:

"Succoring a Soroban", and within two sentences I split a gut.

They probably wouldn't be allowed to publish such politically incorrect stuff these days. ;-)

I'd give a lot to get a copy of a PE article that ran in the (I believe)

58-60 time period regarding a "Game of 21" that was played with a telephone stepping relay, where it was "you against the computer". I'd like to do a discrete digital version for my freshman students as a lab project.

Designing the logic is simple; giving out a copy of "how we did it in the '50s" is priceless.
