No, this isn’t an spam message or advertisment on how to prank calls. But it is about prank calling.

I ran across this website earlier today; take a look at it. It is a group of people, presumably hearing, discussing how to use ip-relay calls to prank people. There are even descriptions of prank calls that they have taken.

For me, the most interesting thing about the forum exchange wasn’t the fact that they were pranking people with ip-relay, but it was the glimpse into another world. A world that most of us deaf folks live in but sometimes don’t participate in. And I thought it was amusing how much fun they were having with something as simple (and important to us) as ip-relay!
