The interviews are of mixed quality and not all of are online, but being so early gave them access to some people who were not around for later waves of interviews. A subset of the transcripts are now online, including those with Hopper, some of them digitized with the support the ACM. <a href="https://sova.si.edu/details/NMAH.AC.0196?s=0&n=10&t=C&q=&i=0">https://sova.si.edu/details/NMAH.AC.0196?s=0&n=10&t=C&q=&i=0</a> The ones with an icon of what seems to be a gift box.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Best wishes,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Tom<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
