Just one more Pat and I'll stop living in the past!

I can remember my junior high and high school days, back in the early
and mid '60's, waiting by the mailbox for the Lafayette catalog to
arrive.

I also remember the great smell of the Allied and Lafayette catalog --
gosh I loved getting those in the mail...

Oh well, like I said ... guess I've gotten off the intent of the news
group, but thanks for the trip back in time Pat, I enjoyed it!!!

[Moderator's Note: Those 'trips back in time' are fun, and really I
think they are essential to a complete understanding of modern day
technology and telephony. There are a lot of politics and history
involved in why things are as they are today. Things don't just
happen. We cannot dwell in the past but we must learn from it.  PAT]
