Fascinating Facts About Telephone Technology and Networks... 

Zajtchuk, Russell, M.D., Advanced Technology and International Health, Rush-Presbyterian St. Luke s Hospital former Commanding General, USAMRMC, telephone interview, October 18, 2001. 

The majority of home Internet connections use POTS (Plain Old Telephone System) and a modem. Most ISPs connect with each other using phone lines of T1 speeds (1.554Mbps) or faster. Certain ISPs that make up the backbone of the Internet use technologies like SONET that can get the data moving at gigabit speeds. 

Natural and synthetic iron oxides not possessing pigment properties are used as raw materials in the production of hard and soft ferrites (see Section 5.5.5.2, Electro- and Magneto-Ceramics) for radio, television and telephone technology, for adhesive magnets, for rotors in dynamos, for low-loss magnetic layers, for DC-motors, for transformer cores, for electronic calculators and high frequency furnaces. This amounts to an annual worldwide production of more than 300 10 t/a. 

There is no doubt that our material standard of living has risen dramatically over the last century. Much of this improvement is either the direct result of, or would be impossible without, synthetic organic chemistry. For example, modern drugs to combat a disease, electronic equipment such as telephones and computers, credit cards, cars, sports equipment, non-iron shirts, the list is endless, are all possible only because of synthetic organic chemistry. Our desire to improve our material well being has been a part of human life since it first started (we date periods of history by the technology and materials in use, hence terms such as stone age, bronze age, iron age) and is unlikely ever to cease. We will always seek to improve yet further on the materials available to us in order to provide complementary improvements in our standard of life. When I was a student, one computer would occupy a... 

People with specialized expertise in the domeiin of interest, the technology, and/or the market niche can be quite valuable. People who were formerly stakeholders within the population of interest tend to be particularly useful. These people cem be accessed via e-mail or informal telephone calls (which are surprisingly successful), gather together in invited workshops, and/or hired as consultants.
