ChaptEr 2: Launch This was no small thing. In 1989, when Elon made this trip, there was no Internet, really. You couldn’t google your destination. Google Maps would not be there to help you get from point A to point B. In fact, if you wanted to travel, you usually turned to a professional travel agent. But Elon did not have that resource. His father wasn’t funding this adventure; he’d only pay for schooling in South Africa. If Elon was going to make it in Canada, he had to figure it out himself: what to do, where to settle, and how to pay for it. Sealing an envelope, Maye sent a letter to her uncle in Montreal announcing Elon’s arrival. It would be great if Elon could stay with him. She waited for a reply, but by the time Elon’s flight took off for Canada, she had not heard back. Elon’s plane landed and he needed to get ahold of this long-lost uncle. Plunking coins into the slot of pay phone, Elon did what every- one did back then to find a phone number: he called the operator. But the operator could not find a listing for Elon’s uncle. Before cell phones, if you needed to make a call away from home or work or school, you had to use a public pay phone. They were conveniently placed in airports, hotels, some street corners, and other busy places. You held the receiver up to your ear and started putting coins into it—like a parking meter. The more money you spent the longer you could talk. Mid-conversation, the phone would alert you that your time was running out, which resulted in a sort of dance—people urgently searching pant pockets, purses, and wallets for extra coins! But there was a backup if you wanted to save your money: calling “collect.” The operator would place the call and ask the person on the other end to pay for it. If you were calling your parents, this was definitely the way to go. 23
