The Human Computer Skit during the '72 or '73 year was hillarious. Burns would be the scientist asking a Human Computer (played by Avery) a question. Then Avery would to make cash register type noises and do a robotic rendition of generating a ticker tape from his mouth. Burns would then pretend to "read the answer". For a 10 year old, that skit was quite funny. In addition, a Japanese Gardens (a Buena Park, CA amusement park) TV special was shown in 1973 with these two comics as the comedic entertainment during several spots on the variety two hour presentation.
