Default off topic - payback

An electronic version of sending back a bunch of blank papers in the
postpaid envelope that comes with credit card offers.

I have a home fax machine and sometimes get unwanted ads faxed to me.
They usually have an 800 number to call - often about insurance or
investments.

When I get one of those I put it back in the fax and dial the 800
number. You would not believe some of the things I hear the person
saying after they answer the phone a few times and hear the fax beep.
They get almost as mad as I do when I get their fax.

This works best if your fax has a redial feature - when a person
answers the fax can't conect to it tries again after 60 seconds - I
put it on for as many recalls as it will make. I want to tie up their
lines as long as possible.
