Every drama has a bright side: really funny thing is that all those very long numbers on the old computer printouts (early 70s) were a sinch for me to see the wrong ones ,somewhat like colour blind folk seeing camo during WW2 etc. When I was doing computer control work back then, what took others hours to scan printouts took only minutes for me whereas reading a few pages is really hard work. Ha Ha.
