0INTRODUCTION
If you're now racing around like photon in a fibre-optic cable, this worn-out old Dad joke may help you change gears in the lap.

"A photon checks into a hotel when the bellhop asks, 'Would you like help with your luggage?' The photon replies, "I don’t have any. I always travel light."

1FATHER FIGURES
To recognise and appreciate the Dads that are New, Seasoned or Father Figures, here are three that should be familiar from the High School or ElecEng days.

You may like to follow-up these Wiki or YT links out of curiosity. I've recently found & watched them. I have no financial affiliation with the channels or their products.

Feel free to interact. My curiosity about this technological surge from the 1850's started in my High School days of the early 1970's.
