I'm Jon, and this is Part 3 of FOOL TIME. In Part 1, we examined the invention of the Internet via Morse code and the expansion of telegraph networks. In Part 2, we got to know the noble mensch who made it his mission to lay a telegraph cable across the Atlantic Ocean and the doofus tycoon who stole his idea. Now, in Part 3, we'll watch as the Atlantic Telegraph Company tries to pull off this near-impossible feat. Yep, this episode is The One With The Ships. Hope you enjoy.
