: : What's stupid about it is they show it on the news and tell the whole world how it was done so more can do it! And on a show I seen they explained in detail how this one guy broke out of jail! But what's good about one thing is after watching the movie "War Games" I can go to a pay phone, take the bottom nozzle off, and touch it to a piece of metal to get free phone calls on a pay phone 8-D See ya, Shorty.

: People knew the "phone trick" in the 1950's. That type of info travels fast.
I do see Shorty's point, as the media does indeed seem to take the singular bad things that happen and make a thesis on these things, prompting the copy cats to go out and see if they can top what has occurred and get their names in the news. Sad. Regards. Michaelson
