I was, but it involved Hollerith cards. The first glass teletype I saw was
when I interviewed with IBM at Endicott-Johnson. However I wasn't
interested in programming at the time. My 'programs' were implemented in
ladder diagrams and relays, latter TTL, and sometimes fluidics. With the
advent of the microprocessors I transitioned from hardware to software.
