I'm not kidding. Each and every time, I'd get the PC stuck between various
operators telling him lots of nonsense about nobody being available and
all that, and still the player wouldn't learn. Then I just deiced to do it
OOC, which helped after the second or third try... (a forgetful player,
this one :( That also means I often have to recap what happened previously
every week... *sigh*)
