That is a fantastic video. Over time you tend to forget how much "the
telephone company" (as my father called it) has contributed to so many areas
of communications and computers. My father worked at New York Telephone (and
its successors NYNEX, Bell Atlantic and Verizon) for 25 years after leaving
Grumman Aerospace in 1971.
