Call from Behzad in SB

Tuesday, December 28th, 2004

Just go a surprise from my friend Behzad in Santa Barbara. He needed some help with some work he was doing for a professor. He didnt know how to use a shell so he gave me a call for some help. Nothing a few grep and sed commands couldnt fix relatively quickly. People always seem to be amazed when I tell them I’m answering their call in Argentina even though they called my US number. If vonage could only get some of the touch tone issues I keep having fixed I would recomend their service to everyone. Then again if I were in the states they’d replace this ATA and they claim it would fix my troubles. Then again googling finds tons of problems with the ATA they want to give me so who knows.
