Quote: The good old days of rotary phones...  My first direct connect modem was pulse dial as well.  Quote: ...chasing your goods. Or trying to get Littleton to stop shipping approvals. Those finally stopped when we moved.

Yep, and the hold sound when you call Littleton. Just an annoying company.

Annoying, yes, but they filled many LWS and Bison/Buffalo holes in my Whitman folders when I was a kid.
