That was the problem with telegrams – it required a man at both ends of the circuit at the same time, both being paid.Edison was working on a machine where a telegram could be sent, but be recorded at the other end and be “downloaded” by a operator at a more convenient time, thus avoiding having operators idle so much of the time.The offshoot of this research was the phonograph!
Later, the preacher will ask Jeff if he takes the bride for better or worse, richer or poorer, ’til death do they part, and Jeff will say, “None of your business!” and punch him in the nose.
