(The lights were down because of downed power lines) But then Uncle Phil goes to turn on romantic music, on a radio Plugged into the wall!

Or unless the radio had batteries in it. You know, those things that act as a power supply.

I don't believe that this was a slip-up because it is quite possible that the radio had batteries in it!

Okay, Mr. "Plugged into the Wall"...Some radios that plug into the wall have a battery back-up so that they will still work in a power outage. My alarm clock-radio is an example. Also, some radios (like boom-boxes) give you the option to either plug them into the wall OR run them off batteries, and they'll have a "AC/DC" switch on the side so you can go back and forth between the two power sources. So there!

I don't know about the USofA but over here on my side of the pond we did have gas powered radios! Nothing like the radio featured but it was powered by a thermocouple and drove headphones. I saw one in 1951 and have been looking for others eversince. Terry

I just saw it again. It was a record player. I know not many record players that run on batteries. Only way this record player would have worked is if, and only if it recieved a power supply from an outlet.
