Hi again, Russ Back in the 80s, I had some problems speaking to people on the 'phone. Answering was fine, but when initiating the call, I tended to stutter when trying to speak. This resulted in some people assuming there was no one there, and hanging up. I therefore suggested a scheme where, upon realising a block was happening, I would blow a raspberry down the 'phone, and they would know it was me. Worked very well, too! Not really a satisfactory fix, but it caused a great deal of good natured hilarity between us! Have you ever tried anything like this? Kind regards Tony PS - please forgive my ignorance - what's going on in Atlanta?
