I know we are getting way off topic here, but we old farts are easily distracted.
I just have to share my favorite crossed wires story... two years ago, I got three or four "wrong number" calls at our shop. All were for the same woman. Later on that evening, the woman called me. She had a whole bunch of phone messages for me, on her answering machine. They somehow crossed our lines, and we got each other's calls for three days! You know... we will be out to fix in sometime between immediately and five days. We go together each evening to exchange messages. On the last day, I had to sing Happy Birthday to her, as a message from her dad. Nancy > Sorry Nancy. If it helps, we still have party lines in my area. Although > we are not supposed to.
