Ahhhh cmon guys, havent you heard of X10 Firewire yet?! If we're going
to plug in our collective juices into something, lets try and think up
something new

Yeah....I suppose lighting up electric bulbs to prove a point became passe withEdison 
;-) X10 modules are fairly cheap in the US...

������������(again preset to represent a specific sender)... The program was rather 
rudimentary but it worked fairly well.

It was based on a thing I had accidentally found out abt my service provider Modi Page 
while playing with DTMF freq. (my program was basically a tone-dialer)....I found that 
when I dialed into my Voice mail box, if I sent out DTMF tones instead of leaving a 
message.... the s/w + h/w at the provider's end converted the tones into the string of 
digits that the freq represented AND PAGED ME THAT STRING along with the standard 
Caller-ID.

The same thing can also be tried with a CB radio I guess....
