Guys, I 'tweren't kidding! I remember being told when I was a kid in deadly seriousness NEVER pick up the phone on a Sat. afternoon lest I get a facefull of soot where they were blowing the lines out. Never said what to do if the damn thing was ringing, guess they had a way of telling at The Phone Co. who was talking & who wasn't. -Sandy G. P. S.- In Sneedville, theTaco Bell Co. wanted to put in a restaurant, but were told "No" by the town council, as they already had ONE telephone Co.(South CEntral Bell) & they really didn;t need another one...
