With a bit of practice, I may be able to hook you in so you automatically
get it.  However, that requires you to dial in as a point, which I presume

Very strange.  Dunno how the regional coordinator let him do that, unless
he is the regional coordinator.  In which case I don't see how the net
coordinator let him get away with it!  BFN.
