Heck I remember before letters at the front! Our first phone number in town when I was a kid was "61M" Always thought the main was for my name, not Main.... And we had a 5 party line in the country before that. No wonder I want to talk so much now. Thanks for a OLD memory. Molly In a message dated 5/3/2010 9:54:36 P.M.
