673-9811 is still operational and yes, I still give that one out! It was located just off the corner of campus, so I called every morning to see how to dress.
Figuring out that if your rotary or touch-tone phone was broken, you could rapidly depress the line switch seven times for a seven, ten times for a zero, etc., pausing between each number, and make a successful call that way.

I remember trying that one time, and it actually worked, I was surprised.

You all know why this is right?
I think I once knew, but I can't remember right now
Also WWF - Undertaker days! When America's funniest home videos was funny. Home alone! My dad hated - but would sit through an episode of Full House just for me.
Lmao if we're going before the 90s - I will always remember a convo I had with my boss. He remembers when his family got their first microwave I always thought he was too young to have that kind of memory. remember when microwaves came out??
Oh please let it rain today.

Telegraphs. All telephone lines started out as telegragraph cables. Before voice data had been stumbled upon by AGB. ( sort of).. they dialed out stations to which to send telegraphs using Morse code, which was then converted to typed manuscripts. So that just never changed.

Thank's for taking the time explaining, I have always thought about Morse code as very cool.

I love the sciences in invention. It fascinates me. I can sit for hours pondering how they must have come up with their original hypothesis. But the science behind the telephone, and eventually the television.. just amazes me; what incredible brains to relate such wonder to the world. They ended up being such life altering inventions...
Snow days barely existed? You had to suck it up and go tripping through a foot or two of snow to go to school. Now they seem to cancel or delay school for just a few inches of snow!

In Cleveland??? When I was young, you had to get like 5 inches between 3 AM and 6 AM to have a chance at school cancellation.

We have had entire days canceled here in western Maryland when it was 45 degrees and raining. But the school board will call it the night before simply because snow is in the forecast. It's absolutely ridiculous.

Akron suburb. Not primary snowbelt. Big difference. My daughter goes to school in the secondary snowbelt.
Lake effect snow screwed stuff up today. We got calls and emails last night warning that school could be closed.
