===== Function Help - [O]perator Page ===============================
This selection allows you to try and page me to come to the computer.
If you make the [O] selection and it is not between the hours of
5:30pm to 10:00pm, most likely you will receive a message indicating
I am not available and to either leave a message or comment.
If I am home and have set my machine to inform me when someone tries
the page option, I am sent a series of "Beeps" for 30 seconds -
indicated on your screen by dots - informing me that you wish to
converse. If I respond, you will see a message appear indicating
my presence. At that time you may begin typing your message and
we can "talk".
This same form of conversation is available if I request it - even
though you have not paged me. For instance, because my screen echos
everything a caller is doing, I can sometimes spot a user who is
having difficulty with a certain function of the board. Rather than
let him create a problem on either the board or his machine, I may
interrupt his call by using the chat mode and provide assistance.
