There has been a lot of talk about the 'display calling number" feature in the public Bulletin Board Syystems (BBS's) locally. Most of it was a year or so back. Most sysops would kill to get this feature. The number of would be 'hackers' and other low-life BBS nuisances would be vastly reduced. I saw a msg from a sysop somewhere in the southeastern US who claimed to be particpating in a test of the feature by his local phone co. He seemed quite pleased with it. -- Leonard Erickson ...!tektronix!reed!percival!leonard CIS: [70465,203] ...!tektronix!reed!percival!!bucket!leonard "I used to be a hacker. Now I'm a 'microcomputer specialist'. You know... I'd rather be a hacker."
