How cool that would have been. Thanks for sharing

I guess the merger of the Overseas Telecommunications Commission with Telecom in '92 killed it off, yeah? I was doing a fair bit with them in my day at IBM. Telstra is so pathetic nowadays in comparison with what we had in a compnay like OTC back then.
