[GreenKeys] Mylar & paper tape question

[COURYHOUSE at aol.com]

Mike!   what console  machine?  the flexowriter console  on the Burroughs  
205 <grin!>
 
We ended up  with all Jack Aldridge's   stuff   ( service  for Burroughs at 
about the time of the electrodata  changeover  he was in Pasadena  and  phx 
  both)    and any way there are a few  reels  I remember  of the blue 
mylar in  his  stash....  we  own   our  Burroughs  collection to his 
hoarding....

In the  "olden days" when I worked for Burroughs, we used to punch all of 
our MTR  tapes (and copies of some customer tapes) on the blue Mylar 
reinforced paper  tape, and I don't recall the Mylar tape causing a problem with our 
punch. Is  there that much of a difference between the punch on our L2000 
and a teletype  punch?
