Well you would be a good one to answer some of Richard Youl's questions
then.  He was asking me about some of the endings of W.U. activities.
I guess the end of Plan 21-A switching more or less coincided with 
closing a lot of offices and converting them to agencies?  And using
the central computer to handle all the messages.  And what happened to
Telex and TWX?  did AT&T acquire them?  And the end of the telegram
business happen all at once, or was it gradual?  Just recently I got
a Mailgram, so I guess the money transfer company that bought the
W.U. name will still do Mailgram and telegram business if you really
want them to.
