I am not using Local because this action is being performed BY a Local
channel.  I wasn't comfortable nesting local channels in this
environment since that is largerly untested methodology... And this is
a high profile platform.

I figured it would be a more 'stable' solution to simply dial SIP into
localhost.  I suppose this is not possible in asterisk though, huh?
