I think a bunch of us don't have to imagine that, we remember that. We remember waiting until 5pm to call, for that slight reduction in rates; or if it wasn't going to wake up someone, we'd wait until 11pm to call, when the long distance rates dropped to their least expensive rate.

(And the word processing program for Net54 has a grammatical suggestion of hyphenating 'long distance', which isn't how I recall it was used in the 70's. But then I guess 21st century folk have no clue as to what 'long distance' was.)
