French savant Lavoisier, aka the “father of modern chemistry”, is right once again. In nature, nothing vanished, everything got transformed. Demonstration: “A UK researcher is urging people to dust off their old-fashioned telephones and bring them along to an interactive telecommunications event at the Museum of Science and Industry.” (via textually)
“Professor Nigel Linge [in picture] from the University of Salford is on the hunt for anything from 1980s ‘brick’-style mobiles to 1960s dial phones, and beyond. He is looking to expand the University’s collection of historic telephones, which includes several early mobile phones, old BT exchange parts and a morse code telegraph sounder from the early 1900s.”
