As a college student in 1960, I had a summer job with Burroughs at their Paoli, PA site. Nothing to do with nixie tubes. [link\|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burroughs_Corporation\|Burroughs Corp.] strated it's life in St. Louis, where DeSitter sits, in 1886 as American Arithmometer Company. Burroughs merged with Sperry to form Unisys. Alex Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom ... the argument of tyrants ... the creed of slaves. -- William Pitt, addressing the British House of Commons (1783)
