Humans join the puppets from time to time in the series. Here Bill Baird matches his skill with the computer against Kozuko Noguchi and her abacus. This duel of old versus new was urged by puppet characters Snarky (Left) and Gargle (Right). Miss Noguchi won the contest, proving, surprisingly enough, that speed and adroitness with the ancient beaded instrument can outweigh technological advancement, represented by computing machine.
