Wow, what a find. Thanks! Also, ugh.

We've changed the URL from http://mashable.com/2015/09/27/univac-bible/, which I think dalke has shown has plagiarized this excellent 1955 article. It's pretty sickening to think of what else these websites must be ripping off without attribution.

I've marked this subthread off-topic because hopefully the thread can be about the extraordinary details of the original article. But props to dalke for an extraordinary bit of research.
