[GreenKeys] Fwd: [midatlanticretro] Fwd: Search for functioning teletype machine in DC area

[Christian R. Fandt]

Hey mid-Eastern Coastal guys,

I'm forwarding this to the group as there would be more of us that may be 
able to help the producers with a period Teletype machine they have in 
mind. Seems they possibly want the type of TTY that was found on board a 
submarine, the way the associate producer's message reads below.

Midatlanticretro is a group of classic computer collectors and historians, 
almost exclusively older non-PC/windoze type machines, of which I'm loosely 
associated. It is Mid-Atlantic Retro Computing Hobbyists, or simply MARCH.

Good luck.

-Chris F.
