You do realise that *you* shouldn't be touching that don't you?

Perhaps if your modem/fax/phone started "having intermittent problems"
and BT had to send an engineer out, and you offered him/her nice tea &
biscuits the "fault" would require a new faceplate to be fitted ;-)


Thats what happened to me yeras ago .I had an engineer out to fix a
line fault,he noticed I sytill had the old style socket and
"suggested " I might like it modernised so he changed it and gave me a
new style phone .i passed a few shekels his way and offf he went .
