[Coco] I'm grilling in January in shorts and no shirt.....

[John Donaldson]

I remember someone in the local COCO club back in the early 80's wrote a 
Demon Dialer program that used the cassette relay to pulse dail the 
phone. It then looked for a modem signal. If one was found the phone 
number was stored, it then dailed the next phone number in sequence.
