Re: [GreenKeys] Teletypes featured in film and TV

 

I think it was in the "Andromedia Strain" that a teletype machine, 32 or 33,
played a part.

It either got a paper jam, or was not being constantly monitored when some
crucial bit of

info was sent to that 'super medical research facility'.  

 

And, I have a vague memory of a Teletype being involved in a few scenes of
the movie,

"Fail Safe".  (Failsafe?)

 

Then, don't forget Jack Webb, William conrad, David Nelson and several
others in the movie,

" -30- ".   -30-  was a commonly used 'end of story' sign in newspaper
language.

Hi,

Have you already forgotten about Robin Williams in "Good Morning Viet
Nam"? TTY machines were prominently featured.
