I just got off of the phone with Mr. John Fiery, the owner of a Model 28ASR
which was a treasure of his grandfather, a former WU Teletype Repairman.
I shall not go into detail, but I am incredibly pleased and humbled by this
young man, who has expressed a desire to actually make the machine he has
work.
He stated that he has a 9 year old daughter who has the interest and ability
to comprehend and deal with technical subjects to which she has been
introduced.
Mr. Fiery lives about twenty minutes from Frederick, Maryland, in a little
town called Clear Spring.
Are there any GreenKeyers living in his part of the world who would be
willing to take this pair of potential enthusiasts under their wing and
mentor them into full-time, superbly familiarized (addicted to/with) the
amazing science and black arts of teletype machine ownership and operation?
I am shipping a Flesher TU-170 so that he can connect his computer up so he
can watch ITTY with it.
We do need more younger people interested in carrying on with the survival
of these important relics of American Communications History, so why not
join in and fuel the spark that we all have felt in our younger days?
His e-mail is jfiery222 at aol.com.
Thjanks in advance - - -
