It is wonderful that oceans don't dampen information. We truly are living in an amazing information world now days.
When I was in high school, we had a telephone. It was on the wall with a long cord. When you picked up the receiver and got a dial tone, you could DIAL, not push buttons, actually dial the number.
But, there were times when you picked up the receiver and you heard 2 other people talking and you had to wait until they were done before you could talk. This was called a party line. You weren't suppose to listen in either, but if it was your neighbor girlfriend talking to another girlfriend, you could join the chat. So it was really a party line.
But if it was mothers you had to hang up and wait until they were done talking. This was horrible for a teenage girl! Wait to talk on the phone??
