So many punches just to spell "ZORCH IT'S A SYSTEM 3"  - I don't understand the values beneath the letters. They aren't sequential.

Cool. I guessing system 36 and the AS400 replaced that?

B-A-8-4-2-1...............
B,A, 4, 1 would be the letter "E". 4,2 would be the number "6". The B and A punches were needed to extend the code for the 26 alpha and selected special characters. If you look at the A, B and numerical punches, and the corresponding letter, you can decipher it.

Carl said something my elementary teachers used to say to me...stop using your fingers !

Oh, and I got a kick of of the 10 kinds of people.

I love rational numbers.
I only like irrational numbers.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.
