    A Turing machine with two storage tapes cannot simulate a queue in both real-time and with at least one storage tape head always within o(n) squares from the start square. This fact may be useful for showing that a two-head tape unit is more powerful in real-time than two one-head tape units, as is commonly conjectured.
