An old vet friend of mine was using punch cards around that time; so it's entirely possible. I don't doubt what Ant has to say tho... I haven't found his credibility to be of any issue. -- "Hrrngh!

My first programming class (Fortran) used card readers and was before 1974. I imagine there are a number of others around here who have similar experiences. -- Don't bother trying to contact me via email.
