re: #146 Cato the Elder

Fascinating, and obviously possible, because the starting position of the ball was always the same and each character was at a different angle and distance from the platen. Of course we’re talking about microseconds, but I suppose the Soviets had the technology.

Yes they did. They used human remote sensors stationed in facilities near the North Pole to zone in on certain UN offices in New York City. Very effective program from what I read. Let me see if I can find the Wiki entry.
