I mean really.<\/p>\n<p>Today I talked to them on the future (history) of telephones, paroting things my dad has told me about voice-over-IP technologies and problems [with emergency and police services] that arise. They offered to interview, I believe the word Slavitt used was &#8220;mock,&#8221; me should I make it that far with my fellowships. They promised to be especially unkind if need be.
