Easily my favorite title among the huge number of interesting (and often obscure) papers, books, research papers, etc. unearthed by SlideRule. Thanks for all the research and work documenting these treasures Kim!

Happy to contribute (thanks for the kind words). I have many, many more examples in my archives, but I often lack a download reference (my earlier negligence) for the same. With hindsight to extant DMA oversight, I am reticent to post my e-version (scans, etc.) sans-url(s). As I rediscover a 'open-source' repository, I'll post same: many more to come.

This is quite often an issue for these old documents and software which we've either had for many, many years or acquire today (e.g. from eBay), and wish to share with the community. Though one must try to make a sincere effort to find the copyright holder to seek permission, most often it's not possible, or at least not practical.

In such situations, many folks in the community share this information with a disclaimer along the lines of:
