[GreenKeys] OT - Prepare to get your mind blown - you think Teletypes are complicated?

The Linotype was invented in 1884, so it pre-dates Teletypes by several 
decades.  These made a Teletype look simple.  A friend sent me a link to 
this film documentary that was made in the 1950s and later converted to 
video and uploaded to YouTube.  It takes 35 minutes, and the video 
quality is not all that great, but is well worth watching.  Note the 
Teletype connection near the end...
