I'm not as old as the Western Union story makes me sound but it does show that company blew it again. I used the service in the early 1980's. I forget what it was called. I do remember running up a $700 bill one month researching Cities Services..here WU had a forerunner of today's internet. Where are they today...from there I moved to Compuserve, another also run now but then the leader. Too bad they were owned by a very conservative company HR Block...
