I remember vividly in grade school in the late 1960s that The Phone Company came to our classroom and taught us how to use a rotary-dial phone, and more importantly, phone etiquette--like say hello and goodbye, let a phone ring 10 times before hanging up with no answer, don't call after 9 p.m. or before 6 or 7 a.m.--all good rules even now. I know I'll sound like an old curmudgeon for saying so, but I wish today's schools would spend some time on etiquette.
