@mediaarchaeologylab LOL I grew up with the only paper in the house being old punch cards, because my mom used to code them for her job.

@ai6yr @mediaarchaeologylab I almost got in trouble once for leaving a pile of punch cards at the front of the classroom for a prof. I may have triggered a traumatic flashback.

I have a number of old punch cards on my desk, come to think of it. I use them as bookmarks, but now I have more ideas.
