    YIPL,
    I've heard of the curdlertyIpL, no. 12); apparently
    they're consider~ng droppin; the entire matter
    after it proved powerfa1 enough to ''destroy" all
    the cats and monkeys in an animal room at a large
    universit~y. S.
    
    Gentiemen:
    There once was a guy from Mass
    Who trusted not A. P., U. P. L, or Tass.
    He took dollars two
    And sent them to you
    ~ecause he wanted to subscribe to YIPL.
    R.R.,Mass.
    
    Dear YIPL,
    I assame you already know tbat some telco's are
    using KP-2 which is 1300~1700. Fuck Ma Bell.
    R. H. , CA.
    
    KP-2 is ''transit keypulse'r as opposed to KP-1
    walch is terminal, meaning po~nt of dest~nation.
    Wi~h KP-” you can call Fiance via England. This
    is primarily done on overseas calls where direct
    access is not provided.
    
    In order to stack, or aUd, your calls up by a
    long chain, a cortain procedure is used which
    requires the use of blank codes, which allow one to
    call a number( that is not a customer) in area A and
    then cal1 again to area B, ~oing tErough A in the
    process. ~ this is of any use~which we doubt) we
    will publish codes sent us.
    
    Dear YIPL,
    Could you tell me ~vhere I can get ahold of some
    information on how to use a blue boxon pay phones.
    Every time I beep off an operator cuts in, so Irve been
    limited to using my fr~end~s phone lines. And because
    I don't like the idea of maZing a habit of usir.g a line
    \7ery often I've just about run o~t of avaLlable lines.
    
    B.P ,Md.
    
    In many areas, operators manually place 800 (Wats)
    calls' and think you are signalling them wher: you beep
    and their switchboard lamp winks. So wLen that happens

    





    try calling long distance information instead. OftentI:.e
    operatorflocal) st~ys on a second, so ask for a name, &
    when you hear local operator leave the line, beep off.

    which way is ~t fa cing?
