Party Lines

I'm not that old (at least I like to think that), but as a kid I remember visiting my friend's place (actually his parent's place) in the 1970s and accidently picking up the phone on the short ring, when his cabin's phone signal was the long ring, and upsetting the folks down the street. The Lakes Region has really come a long way in the past 30-years. It used to be that Tuftonboro was the country, now it seems like it is just another suburb of Boston. Do others remember the party lines?
