We do several similar things with after hours support here - using an Asterisk server and some prerecorded messages.

It is an electronic allegory for a dead man's switch. We have a location with night watchmen who work alone. Worrying about them, since they work alone, we are developing a small application that will have the watchman log in at set intervals. If they fail to login, the app will send them a text reminder. If they still fail to login it will then contact our police department. There's the rub. We can't send the police a text and they don't monitor email. It has to be a voice message. It could even be a canned message. Can anyone point us to something that will do this that we can program from CF or VB? Larry V.
