Here's a basic description of the process. *Pretty much along the lines

That ShortWave guy isn't so dumb after all. *Never knew that.
I have a new complaint. *It seems like lately there are a bunch of different
commercials that include a cell phone ringing.
Half the time I have a TV on, sorta half listening to it, as I do other
stuff. *When the stupid cell phone in the commercial rings, it catches my
attention .... at least for a moment. * I don't know if it's coincidental or
if some marketing research group figured out how to get you to pay attention
to the commercials.

Hah.. .see guys, I can start serious threads too...

Anyway, that
phone thing really got me till I found a ringer on mine, only heard on
the history channel

It sounds like a real ringer from a regular old
phone, yes, a ringer, a bell. It was funny the first time my kid and
friends heard it, they are young... they said, "that's a weird
ring"... I told them if they though that was weird, I should show them
a record album..
