It is unfortunate I suppose that Mod-Tap Inc. decided to use RJ-11
connectors to run RS-232.  They have been selling there cabeling
stuff for quite a while now, and it it quite popular.  I suppose now
the next thing we'll see is terminal manufacturers putting rj-11's
on the back of there terminals for RS-232, and when you accidently
plug a phone line into it--Blamo!--a $200.00 repair!
