We have been talking for weeks in the Digest now about how to make a telephone ring on cue for a play. Well, I was at school today and decided to do some research on the topic. I looked in the "Reader's Guide to Periodical Literature", Volume 49, 1989, and found the following reference: | "Making a Telephone Ring [theater special effect]" K. Ruling il | _Theatre_Crafts_ 23:92+ Ap'89 Which means that in _Theatre_Crafts_ magazine, April '89, on page 92, there is an article by K. Ruling. And it includes illustrations, too! My school library doesn't subscribe to _Theatre_Crafts_, so I couldn't look up the article. Sean E.

You mean, a call back. If you can get an extension on that line, and
have someone call it, it will call back. Over where I live 55x-####
will cause a ring back.
Where "X" is a number from 0 to 9 and "#" is the last four digits of
your phone number, if it is busy, then increment it by one.
You will hear a dial tone, and a click. Flash, and a tone will come
on. Hang up and the phone will call you back.
