Telephone numbers...

A fellow I used to know, had a phone book from New Haven CT... several pages
covered all the suscribers.....who had only 3 digit numbers

I personally can remember...

in 1950 our phone was      2-2962
Then late 50's    was   TR 4-2962     TR being 87
60's on, 'all numbers'   874-2962 

When we moved, of course, we lost the number we had for 40 years.

...and now, I'm simply 192.153.4.200
