Over the years the space stations have set several impressive records, including the longest stint in orbit (211 days in 1982).

New phones have simple clip plugs that can be adapted to older existing outlets with an easy-to-use converter. Buyers who ask Ma Bell to make the hookup, however, can be charged up to $40 an hour. Some phones now being offered for sale are cheaply assembled and may last only about two years, compared with the old AT&Tphones that were designed to dial and ring for 15 to 20 years. Although the Bell System still makes...
