Have you read this? It tells a different story. Strowger didn't get the calls because some tin plate shorted the phoneline, it was his imagination that the phone girls were the culprit. So yeah, the story is not exactly the same, as I expected, it tells it from Stowgers point of view.

And where is this linked on wiki? I can't find it.

I did read - I agree its not the exact same story

Where was this linked

Also, apologies. I had actually clicked into https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strowger_switch from the originally linked page

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
