Thread Name: Dialtones- A Telesymphony
Subject: RE: Dialtones- A Telesymphony
Yes, you're correct, Robin...the piece was mistitled "Dialtones" when what they were "playing" was ringtones. Of course, they could say that since the computer was dialing the phones they were "tones that were played when the phone was dialed" and hence "dialtones" -- "Get it? It's a PUN" -- but I don't buy it. Didn't, in fact. Still, some people liked it, and they weren't hurting or offending anyone, so more power to 'em.
