When I first got out of school in the mid 70s, I production scheduled a huge food processing plant, that only shut down one shift a week 7/24, with a calculator, a pencil and a paper spreadsheet. I was always on call to make corrections. I imagine now that job has been replaced with a cheap PC.
Uh huh...yep. And thus why the old joke...
"Did you hear about the constipated mathematician? He worked the problem out with a pencil!"
....gets very few laughs anymore, huh Mac!!! 

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
