There has also been a telephone museum in downtown Edmonton run by Alberta Government Telephones (AGT, changing its corporate name to Telus) called "Vista 33", named after the floor in the AGT Tower where the museum/exhibits are located. Last I checked there was an admission charge to go up there. I don't have the specific address of the AGT Tower offhand; Vista 33 is usually mentioned in Alberta phone books, or it can be determined from Alberta Government Telephones' listings in Edmonton. While at the AGT Tower, AGT's library is on the 23rd floor, and contains some interesting telecom books and that. You could call it "Vista 23", assuming they haven't changed floors in recent months. dleibold@attmail.com Dave Leibold - via IMEx node 89:681/1 Dave.Leibold@f135.n82.z89.onebdos.UUCP
