When I worked for the phone company (before most people had ever heard of a modem), there  was a story going around that some blind guy had figured out how to whistle a tone that would connect him to long distance equipment, for free calls.  The story went that the company didn't want bad publicity prosecuting a blind guy, so they hired him.

Don't know if any of it is true, but it makes a good story.   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
