Celery Phones
What with my land line broken in two, I used my celery phone to call the power company. That didn't work. I dialed, got thru to the faraway call center, and listened to their auto answer machine. It got around to saying " Press ONE to report a power outage." Tough luck, my celery phone (Lucky Goldstar 305C) won't do that. Soon as it connects, the number keypad goes away. Without that keypad, there is no way to press ONE, or any other number for that matter. PITA. I had to drive down to Mac's Market in the ville to call in my power outage. I even dug up the celery phone instruction booklet off my laptop and read it thru. When all else fails read the instructions. No luck. Not a word about dial ONE or dialing an extension, or dialing anything at all after the celery phone places a call.
