My grandma told me this story: they had to send one of their programs over to a partner university in China, and back in dickety-six that means packing up your cards into boxes and packing the boxes onto a truck.
But when the program gets there, it doesn't work. Same machine, no output.

My grandma even told me about how one of the issues with the old punch card system was how if you dropped the stack, say good bye to your code.
My grandpa specifically got beautifully fast internet in middle of nowhere Maine, and gave me a router for my first apartment.
