Very Cool. Gotta be in the mood and it's got to be the right time of day for me. Thanks for sharing!

Neither. It's 103.3 out of Princeton. Dial's off on the upper range.

Steve Allen and Jayne Meadows came out with a video called "Computability" on the same subject in 1984. You can still find it on YouTube. Watch Steve use a Kaypro!

Steve Allen was a true renaissance man.

Yes I agree. The explanation is not bad at all. And the forecast that in due time all communications and multimedia (they use different wording) will happen via computers is remarkable. Very smart, that they saw that coming at the time.

Better than I expected!

Fran, I'm beginning to think your P.O. Box is actually a time machine

Warren Bailey

Wow, thanks to records like this, everyone is going to learn how to program a computer by the time the 21st century starts! :-)

Jac Goudsmit

Too cool. Had my C64 at that time.

Is that tuned to 102.1 or 102.9? :D

Well after working in the computer industry for more than 40 years, now I know why every keyboard I have ever used makes the same mistakes :-) what a great find Fran. Who said that nostalgia was a thing of the past?

Nice! I listened it from start to finish. Funny how the first printed line reads: "hello" They couldn't imagine yet the concept of printing a line to the whole world. :-)
