BG> If an anomaly occurs only ONCE, and cannot be reproduced, or if the CFG

Even that one, I am talking about that AT&F command doing that.  Are
you talking about the CFG file that goes AT&FS??=??&W.
If so, then it's still a bug.  But otherwise, yes, you can reduce the
bug count from 15 to 14.

BG> able to reproduce the majority of them.  As I said, they were one-offs.

Some of them, like the failing to connect with EC, were only once-off
because I didn't dial out often enough.  It's only inbound calls where
I get a large number of samples.

PE> just be honest about it, and admit that USR (and you) don't take bug

PE> bugs were once-off and not bugs too.

BG> Not if they occurred more than once.  Which they did.

And David Begley's connects occurred more than once.  So did the
Hayes.  So did Rod's.  So did the ATZ.  USR could have answered 
AT LEAST those ones.  BFN.  Paul.
