i'm so glad you finally found it! now follow the white rabbit!
years ago Robb set up an asterisk server and we started setting up a
building-wide VOIP phone network. We got three phones working (the payphone
outside, the phone in sudoroom and one in CCL) but eventually it decayed back
into nonexistence. I know you all think i'm a superhacker but i have been
unable to get asterisk to work ever, even though i have a ton of VOIP phones
that i would love to setup with it. This is me crying out for help.
I will hook up the black rotary phone in the trash room as soon as I can, and
when it rings you better answer.

So here's a mystery for all you techno-sleuths and
scavenger hunt fans: I
just discovered a wall-mounted, old school rotary phone, in a hidden
location in the Omni trash room!
I'm not going to reveal the exact location so as not to deprive you of the
joy of discovering it yourself.
* Does the phone still work?
* What is it connected to? Hotline to the FBI for mob informers?
* What might have been the history of that phone? Did the current trash
room have a different use that might explain the need for a phone there?
* Is there a link to the doorless room in the basement, or the zombie
apocalypse emergency supply closet?
Sooo many questions...
