Remember Todd - you were there, right ?

Yes, a cherished memory, but somewhat before Power-Point
animations. IIRC, at that time, we were still sneaking in
and using the PDP-11 to play spacewar.

When I was learning to fly gliders, I was sneaking in and playing
spacewar on the PDP-1 it was originally created on 8^)
