“During the Monica Mess, someone here at FR did provide Monica’s REAL phone-number. I did call her, but she hung-up on me.”
I love that kind of FR action. Somewhere around 2002 a lib activist group was having a national call and a FReeper posted the call-in #.
Hilarity ensued, Moderator lost control and ended the call.
That happened another funny time; the political potential of the web was just beginning to be realized, and some political advisor thought it would be good to sex-up one of Hillary's events by having a VOIP call-in:
A freep posted the number, and Hillary Call-in thread sucked in posts with the gravity of a black-hole: EVERY freeper suddenly had to try and speak to her in this call in.
And they did, very insultingly, to the delight of all --some even put the receiver next to the TOILET AND FLUSHED IT, with the sound going out over the internet.P> So obviously they terminated the event..! hHAHAHAH, good times!
