[inforoots] Internet April Fools Jokes

[Roy Mize]

Speaking as a non-techie who was supporting advanced techies at this 
time, You guys were mean.

My best one wasn't an April Fools joke.  In the late 1950s I taught 
analog computer maintenance on Nike Ajax/Hercules AT&T built 
computers.  One of the devices had many contacts.  I inserted a thin 
clear plastic tab between the contacts and then had the students 
troubleshoot the system.  Even when they narrowed the malfunction to 
the appropriate device, it was still a puzzle.  Nothing seemed to be 
wrong.
