  Well - this is encouraging... if you need more poles, blessed as you
are with an embarrasment of relays - you can just double them up.

  PC-types would make a nice retro-mod Simon... and LEDs for the

  To make Simon's I/O a nice Model 15 Baudot Teletypewriter... paper tape
storage, keyboard entry, page-printer output...


  Gee, Mr. Wizard!!!
