[GreenKeys] Morse Code's SOS

[tony j. podrasky]

Hey Guys;

     "LONDON, Jan. 1 (UPI) == The Morse code distress signal
     SOS is now officially history, but not before a 13,000
     ton Bahamas-registered ship used it to call for help"

SO: with all this high-tech gear ON BOARD ALL THE SHIPS ALL
OVER THE WORLD, they had to use Morris-code.

I'd sure like to hear the reason why.

73,
