How to Dial a Rotary Telephone

I remember when I was a kid and our phone was a party line which meant that you could only make a call if no other members of your "party" were using the phone. There would always be the one person who talked for what seemed like forever and you would pick up the phone over and over,hoping that their call was done, and each time you hung up with a little more emphasis.  There was also the intricacies of calling someone on your party line, dial their number, hang up and wait for the ring, then quickly pick it back up. And with skill and timing we managed to have "conference" calls with all of our friends. We would set a time, one person would make the initial call and then all of the others would pick up as soon as the first two parties had connected.
