Cute! However, it appears that the word "interface" didn't appear as a noun
in computer terminology until the 1960s.

Also, Fortran, while development began in 1954, wasn't released until 1957.

Navigating through cyberspace; one for altitude, the other for azimuth. They
didn't have that one quite worked out yet, either. There probably is a
taffrail log around there somewhere. d8-)
