PLA Voice Bridge
The PLA hosts a voice bridge. This bridge was previously hosted on the same extension but the provider changed phone numbers. There are daily conferences from 8pm to 12am EST. The voice bridge is very active during this time, with many people talking and background noise such as soundboards (which many users frown on). The bridge is also a popular place for Telephone Relay Service operators to gather.
A very small number of international enthusiasts have expressed support for an alternative meeting time to allow them to join the fun. (Currently the 8pm to 12am EST schedule occurs in the middle of the night for Europe, the Middle East, and Asia). There has been no official or unofficial secondary meeting time chosen as of March 2007. Most international participants make do with listening in for a short time very late at night or very early in the morning.
Occasionally, a user will create a "secret 800 number" which, when called, forwards to the voice bridge. This is usually accomplished by some method of theft of the toll-free 800 service, and is never officially sanctioned by PLA.
