[GreenKeys] Teletype Model 33 ASR vs. ASR33

[tony j. podrasky]

I'd like to know too.

I came into the Teletype world with the words 15, 14, 28-KSR and 28-ASR.

The first time I heard someone say "blah blah blah ASR28 blah blah blah",
I figured he's probably running up-side-down shift, too...

I thought maybe he should be, like, burned at the stake for that
kind of blasphemy.

Then I thought: *WWIHD?

He'd probably say: "blessed are the ones on RTTY - whether they say
33-ASR or ASR-33, for they are all brothers under the Teletype.
