That Old Black Telephone

That Old Black Telephone This link goes to a telecom industry web site blog. The author, Bob Stoffels, tells a story about a talk he gave to group of people regarding how rotary dial phones worked. He had to describe how these ancient phones looked as a young man in the audience had never seen one before. He goes on to talk about pay phones and the tricks he played in his college days. Pay phones! I can remember when I last saw one of those. I found the post a bit of entertaining telecom nostalgia.
