Telegrams officially stop - Just last week!
This is completely random, but was anyone else as surprised as I was that Western Union officially stopped sending telegrams just last week? Who has been sending telegrams in the last 30 or so years?
Interesting side note in the article about the end of telegrams -- People used the word 'stop' instead of a period to end sentences because the added word was free but punctuation was extra. I always wondered how that got started.
