TTY brings back memories


25 Years ago, (In the good old days?) my first ASL instructor taught

us about the TTY.  A very large box with a cradel for the telephone

handset and a printed readout that scrolled across the screen in

green lighted letters one line at a time.  He said they were too

expensive to buy costing a couple of thousand dollars but if we

could find old teletype machines that the military used to use

we could get those and communicate with our Deaf friends.


We've come along way baby!
