I remember when it was just 404 & 912...no 706...

I remember when you made a local call on what is now called a "land line", you just dialed the seven digits.

But, if you did that in atlanta, you got a busy signal.......until someone told you that you had to dial the area code there to make local calls. Very confusing.

Now you just tap a button.

I can also remember picking up to rotary dial out and listening to the neighbors conversation.
