Friedhelm Hillebrand Invented Texting

Friedhelm, Fried, to his partying college buddies, is a German engineer and technical writer who invented texting in 1985. He needed a way to break up with his hot-tempered girlfriend. 
The maximum number of characters and spaces is 140. That’s the number that can still be managed while driving a car or monitoring aircraft from the control tower. 

There are no royalties paid for text messages. Every time someone sends a text,  F G B D S G E N N N N Z Z.= Fried Gets Blank, Diddly Squat, Goose Egg, Nada, Naught, Nil, Nothing, Zero, Zip.

He has written a book about the creation of texting. The book costs $255.00. T T M M F A F B = That’s Too Much Money For A @#$%&! Book.

So finally there are 910 characters and spaces in this post, Oh wait a minute. That doesn’t include this ….. BBN
