Happy Birthday to Alexander Graham Bell, who is credited with inventing the first practical telephone (there’s some dispute) . . .
I'm in the phone booth, it's the one across the hall
If you don't answer, I'll just ring it off the wall
I know he's there, but I just had to call
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
It's good to hear your voice, you know it's been so long
If I don't get your call then everything goes wrong
I want to tell you something you've known all along
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

Alexander Bell was born in Edinburgh, Scotland on 3 March 1847. Throughout his early life, Bell was a British subject.
Alexander Graham Bell thought the telephone should properly be answered by saying, "Hoy! Hoy!" -- an odd term from the Middle English that became the sailor's "ahoy!" and reflected Bell's sense that those speaking on early telephones were meeting like ships on a lonely and vast electronic sea.
The Russians say slushaiyu (I'm listening). The hipper Russians say allo. Italians say pronto (ready). The Chinese say wei, wei (with a pause between the words, unlike the Japanese mushi-mushi). Wei, wei is meaningless, except as a formula to answer the phone.
