Q: How is being an Engineer different than being a baseline human?

A: You get emails like this:

From: “Chris Nolan” <@@@>
To: “William Entriken” <@@@>
Subject: copper line power

what prevents someone from using the idle line voltage on telephone line to power non phone related lower draw devices? like alarm clock and what not, for the free power?

Could I somehow plug a UPS into the phone line(with an adapter) to steal power?
