Since I last had a clearance in 1974, any remnants of classified
knowledge I might dredge up probably come under the "Top Secret
Embarassing" heading, rather than being a revelation of sensitive
technology. Technology we thought was hot in the 70's is now $1.95,
qty 1 in the DigiKey catalog (microprocessors with 1MHz clock rates,
etc.).

I guess that you have actually read, and also read between the lines, of

microprocessor and the F-14 CADC was in my mind when I wrote said post...

It's a pity that sometimes my posts are apparently ignored, albeit I
acknowledge that lately the quality of my English is a bit wandering, to
say the least.....
