Note that the cord detangler has kept the baby blue cord very well preserved. Post it notes await thoughts which will never be put down.

Posted by INeedAttention.com 7/16/2004 5:58 AM | remove   Actually in a later photo of the attic you'll see that it's actually a single line phone, those are just memory dials. My girlfriend's dad is on speed dial. Posted by INeedAttention.com 7/16/2004 6:00 AM | remove   Sorry to post twice in a row, but just as an interesting side note, the big red sticker on the handset provides the emergency services number which was not yet 911, but rather a local phone number.

Posted by INeedAttention.com 7/16/2004 4:21 PM | remove   Good call on that, it's a Micronta stop-timer that's been adhered to the wall, presumably to keep track of the length of phone calls as you said. Posted by TurboZutek 7/16/2004 5:13 PM | remove   You get the picture of a once very technical and precise mind behind all this, eh ? Shame it lapsed.... :-( Posted by 'Dukes 7/17/2004 5:03 AM | remove   Do the notes and the dates on the notes indicate the wellness of the man in any given period? Example; If I'm depressed, I still manage to put on a good show for the public; does it indicate that he was making / recieving phone calls? Posted by INeedAttention.com 7/17/2004 2:35 PM | remove   In some respects, yes, and in others, no. Take the emergency number sticker for example; 911 was everywhere at least a few years ago. Then we can also see stickers for 10297 and 10-N-J-B. These codes, called carrier access codes, changed to 10-10-297 and 10-10-N-J-B. You may remember commercials from these 10-10 companies (some still are around today). It would seem like he hadn't used the phone in quite some time. Posted by MatC 8/31/2004 12:18 AM | remove   I'm surprised that he had that many people on speed dial, considering that (apparently) nobody ever came to visit him. It's at least eight, and possibly sixteen, numbers! Posted by iliamo1986 10/7/2013 10:15 PM | remove   INA, how fortunate this man was that he had a few people he could count on.
