[GreenKeys] What is to become of NADCOMM?

[Don Robert House]

A city owned telephone company is unusual.  When I started with 
Illinois Bell in 1966 there were 168 independent telephone companies 
in Illinois; today there are less than 10.

>As a former resident of Roseville, California, I recall that in 1994, the
>city-owned Roseville Telephone Company opened a very nice museum of telephone
>and communication technology history right on Atlantic Street, in the very
>middle of downtown Roseville.  Perhaps an inquiry with the Roseville Telehone
>Company might offer satisfactory results, particularly because there was (in
>1994) a very large pool of retired employees who would gather at the museum
>during the day to work on and keep clean all of the equipment.
