Pete,
Some one will soon find means to develop some means to control this Disk.
For the last 58 yrs I have worked, in, on, with, and around these "Beasties" that are now known to be the "Bane" of the "Private,??, Citizen".

The one unchanging fact I have gathered by this Questionable Occupation is that What One Man Will Do , Another Will Certainly Undo!
>>>
Yes as with so many other things I was present to see the transition from IBM's Card Punch Sorters and Counters to the first true digital calculating devices "The Bell Labratories" switching Relay Computer that was first installed at the NACA Langley Research Labratory at Langley Field Va. back in 1947, I was trained to maintain the Mechanical devices asociated there with.
From there I went on to work with the first Numerical Control Milling Machines on which we Programmed and cut the Three Dimensional Moon Maps for the Landing Simulators to train the Astronaughts.
I gave up trying to keep up my skills in this area upon retirement in 1977.
Some times I wish I had never been Involved in what has now become the Monster that destroys the work ethic in the youth of our Planet.
