The first in a series about the impact of computing on society will feature 
some flashes from the past.  Reportedly they will have film of the ENIAC 
from 1946 plus stuff on other toasters of days gone by; plus I think I saw 
mention of Babbage's machine.  Our station carries it today (Monday) at 9.
