No kidding!
I got a special tribute to Western Electric in the BIG Blog post....read it.
Memories, I guarantee. Plus, thoughts about how far we’ve come since then.
We put the curl in the cords down here in Baltimore!
I read it, that’s why the PP mention.

PS...Back in the day at NY Tel I worked on carrier data sets (now called modems) that used vacuum tubes!!! Saw it all the way through to the PC when I was working for ATTIS. (AT&T Information Systems) Left the business for a while and came back to NY Tel and finished my career as a cable splicer in a construction garage in Harlem and Washington Hts.
