Thanks for this, I just used it to prank call sudoroom
as you may have noticed, there is a telephone at sudoroom
it's a grey triangle that kinda looks like the klingon flag, and has an on-off button on its keyboard. It's a corporate speakerphone.
last night we added a ringing bell to the phone line, so that when people call it will make a proper noise.
when you hear the bell, press the on-off button on the speakerphone so you can talk to whoever is calling sudoroom.
the phone number to sudoroom is 510-858-7145
if there is nobody at sudoroom, and someone calls, it doesn't matter that the ringer is so loud because nobody lives at sudoroom or would sleep there, so it shouldn't matter if there's a bell ringing in the middle of the night and nobody answering it.

PS alternate plans are, replace the speakerphone with a payphone (so it's more obvious how to answer it) or get Georgio to make a circuit to cause the speakerphone to automatically pick up when the phone rings..
or we could just label the on-off button better.
