But I kept getting calls for the prison.
Finally a couple of electricians, from the prison, came in my store and we got to talking. In those days, the US Govt has what was called the Federal Telephone System (FTS), a parallel phone system.To access, you had to dial a long set of numbers to access. Seems the prison was the same number on the FTS as me on the regular system.
Explains why the warden of USP Guam was sending me a prisoner. Guess he could sweep up around the shop.
