I did not do this nor would I. Although I really like banana patching and the elimination of multiples, I would never hack up my Wiard in that way. The Wiard is also heavily normaled (this was done in part as a means to the end that Bill was describing, i.e. the "System" concept)

Some corrections - The Ken Stone ASR does not require a "pulse out" to daisychain ASRs together. The "Pulse Out" was simply the only possible way to get the ripple- effect ASR to work. Each cell in the chain is transferred to the next in succession. Each voltage therefore is pass
