I thought Digest fans would be interested in this programme on BBC Radio 4 tonight (Monday 27) at 20.00 GMT (3pm ET): It's available when broadcast from the BBC Radio Four website in RealAudio on http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/radio4.shtml?fm (you can download a free player if you don't already have it) The Secret Life of Phone Numbers Dialing up stories from the history of telephony, Ian Peacock recalls the days of two-digit phone numbers and purring dial tones, GPO operators and mechanical exchanges. He discovers that this era was still with us even as digital technology and mobile phones entered our lives in the 1990s. Producer Alan Daulby The BBC has a listen again facility, also in RealAudio, for up to seven days after original broadcast: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/progs/listenagain.shtml Alan Burkitt-Gray alan@burkitt-gray.com 7 Foxes Dale, London SE3 9BD, UK tel 020 8463 0365 international +44 20 8463 0365 mobile 079 6202 1330 international +44 79 6202 1330
