The 1966 AT&T ad made me think of my friend Mike. I met him around 1982 when he was an ESS tech for Cincinnati Bell Telephone. At the time he was 36, recently divorced, and had three kids. Unfortunately I lost contact with him a couple years later, and didn't locate him until 2021. I sent him a Christmas card, and he called me a few days later, and we talked for over an hour. We had hoped to get together that Summer, but it never happened. Much to my disappointment, I found out he passed away in December, 2022.
