Other important telecom aspects of The President's Analyst included:
* All phone company employees were actually PR robots.
* The phone company had video bugs planted all over the world.
* The phone company was more powerful than the KBG, CIA, FBI, etc.
I would like to compile a list of telecom references from popular
movies (and what those references were).
I particularly liked the Cheers episode two years ago in which Robin
Colcord (sp?) phones Cheers from a plane (using, perhaps, GTE Airfone).
The connection was extremely poor, causing a mis-communication, and
leading to the humorous episode. Sam also implied that Robin used
AirFone only to impress people.
Please email any telecom references from movies that you remember to
DGP0@bunny.gte.com.
