Jack Foley

I requested a citation for Jack Foley as the designer of the Closed Captioning logo, given that he passed away in 1967, seven years prior to even the fledgling British CeeFax service. Anyone able to provide anything? According to www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Image:Closed-captioning-symbol.svg, the logo was created in the 80s? Achromatic (talk) 22:34, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

It's a case of mistaken identity. I've had a conversation with Jack (John) Foley, a long-time employee of WGBH. He isn't sure if he even created the logo or if it was one of the other designers at WGBH. (Airport) 5 April 2012 —Preceding undated comment added 11:59, 5 April 2012 (UTC).
