Just on a break at work, and personal experience brings up a post. I've just witnessed the telephone network win over humans, as we attempted to transfer a call from one office to another. It ended up with the caller getting cut off, then magically re-appearing on the first phone. Now, on 24, the use of telephone conferencing, and holding, and transfering is used at least five times an episode without a problem. Is Jack Bauer just lucky, or do they have a really good phone system? It is all the more remarkable, of course, because their office was attacked earlier in the day. If that happened here, then I think the whole building would just collapse. However, we aren't a government agency, so it is pretty unlikely.....or are we?
