  I wonder if Joe ever accepted to the invitation to attend. I mean, I know he was illiterate, but he would have had someone read this letter to him.

  The 70's? Heck, I still remember that from the 90's and with cell phones no less. I used to work for a company in Boston that handled the service. It was $4 a minute plus inter-connect charges.

  I remember calling collect too but I havn't heard of it since the late eighties/early ninties. And I was only in middle school back then so it was like "the olden days"

  If you don't call collect, how else can you call someone long-distance?
  
  Hell, I ain't paying for it!

  Clyde, if you're implying Joe being in the slammer... You're not too far off;
  
  Joe is third from the R. Note the ballcap.
