Jo I kinda figured you were a supertech, so as you know document, document, document and you will eventually get the idiot... ....when I started doing this in the early 1990's we used to call the USWest Interprise techs in Minnesota supertechs. I made some friends there as we turned up a lot of frame relay and such... So, as you know they can put flags in the switches to watch for those traffic signs and alert log it and flag someone and they can get their Telco Cops on it... they wear a badge and can carry a gun too. It is a federal crime as I understand it, some of them wires cross state boundaries etc. :-) Best wishes - rh -- Robert - Abba Communications Computer & Internet Services (509) 624-7159 - www.abbacomm.net
