Telegram business declining STOP

"Effective January 27, 2006, Western Union will discontinue all Telegram and Commercial Messaging services. We regret any inconvenience this may cause you, and we thank you for your loyal patronage. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact a customer service representative."

Just think, a techology which was first heralded with the message, "What hath God wrought" has fallen to low long distance telephone rates, fax machines, and e-mails.

Who am I?

My photo
Mr. Engineering Johnson
As the nerdy nickname might suggest, my name is Johnson and I am an engineer. I can't promise that you'll find anything good here, but at the very least you'll get what you paid for!
