Uhh. Hmm. This is almost off topic, if you were a bed wetting liberal, to 
end it, yes Mitnick did reprogram the switch so that he could hide in 
between it when using his cloned phone, but what it led up to was him 
being caught by simple triangulation. I guess thats what happens when you 
sit on an illegal phone for days at a time harassing people who really 
don't like you. Such is life, followups should be in email.
