Hi Gene,

Sorry for mistaking you and the article Gene. I did say "might draw a conclusion" - so I'm technically not on the hook for the mistake - but I did mistake the two of you. Thank you for your work copying the cards. It was amazing to see the videos of them running.

I'm assuming the program on the cards was just a RCL, g FRAC to put the mantissa into the right internal register (probably A) and then a long series of f LBL (i) instructions to show it.

I remember many arguments with friends that had calculators from the dark side. They had their points, there were some benefits to those infernal devices (the ability to repartition memory should have made NNNs on those things quite easy); but I'm glad you're using your powers for good.
