Rotary phones are super cool! They work on a mechanical pulse signal. Old school tech that was revolutionary in it's day. My grandma had one. I loved calling home on it.

Hoped Light My Fire would play sometime while I was exercising the M60, and it finally did one day. Purfect music to shoot by.

They were ok I guess, but when they came out you couldn't flirt with the operator.
