This is not to say EMERGENCY! some of the DAMM FOOL operators will put through a call just because some ass..... will says it's important!. my sugestion is that ALL calls should be traced and the origin be available to the CALLEE at NO CHARGE! that will stop a lot of crap going on today with jerks and the dammed computer FONE phreaks. ronald r. tribble ...mibte!ccd700!ron I love FIRE... flame me on this opinion all you want !!!!!!!!!!!
