Skyler,

I would be glad to help within reason.  Since it is not Asterisk and I use
app System() and Lynx as the glue, it wouldn't fit asterisk user's list
anyways.  I use fast AGI for most of the SMS variables.

Helping within reason is good for my karma, too much and I need to be
compensated.  At the very least, thanked publically ;

Like the old Italian saying, "I give my friends just enough so that they
need me, but not too much so that they dont"

I have quite a bit of experience with Kannel and the code.

Hit me up and let's see what help I can provide.

Thanks,
Steve T
