I realize that there is almost never anything truely new (plus ca
change, plus c'est la meme chose) in the PC world, but here is
something that is new to me:

My father has an Epson Equity II, and in it has an Everex
Evercomm 1200 baud 1/2 card modem.  Works fine.  My brother, who
also has an EEII, borrows the thing, plugs it into his machine,
turns it on and gets . . (dramatic pause) . . Jack Buck and the
St.Louis Cardinals loud and clear on the 1" speaker.  KMOX, the
voice of the Radio Cardinals.

I have questioned him closely and he had not been drinking
heavily, had not been near halucinogenic drugs for weeks, and had
not had any recent dental work.

If anyone has had any experience with this (or knows how to cure
it) please let me know.  In the unlikely event that this is a
common occurrence, I'll summarize to the net.
