How has your communication evolved?

Do you still communicate the way you did when you were growing up?

When I was a child…Oh my goodness, I must be getting old even to think of starting a paragraph with a line like that.

But, when I was growing up, our family was on a party line. Our number was 8020, which meant when the only phone in the house rang, it was not for our family unless it rang two “longs”. Longs were different than “shorts.” We used the operator if we wanted to talk with someone who was not on our party line.
