RE: Soap - Was RPCs over HTTPS through the firewall

Dan,

The machine you are thinking of is the IBM 650.  My older brother used one
although I never had the pleasure.  I started on an IBM 1620 (with the
addition and multiplication tables in core memory).

I don't think that is the SOAP these youngsters are talking about, though.

Thanks for the memories,
Ari
