Hi Patrick,

That's why I recommended calluk... they provided the equipment and
infrastructure
for telephones for the troups in Afghanistan so that they could call
home... they've been
around a while and (appear) to be closely involved/linked with orange ...

You may recall my distain for the barbitones, one amusing story to come out
of the
service they provided was that one of their main telco switches failed, so
some soldiers
couldn't make calls... they got a little upset and attacked the phone
(barbitone)... with
bayonets. One of the repair  crew stuck it back together with tape and it
continued to work..
