	Joybubbles - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Joybubbles (born May 25, 1949 as Joe Engressia in Richmond, Virginia, USA) was an early phone phreak.
		Sexually abused as a child by one of his teachers, a nun, Joybubbles reverted to his childhood in May of 1988, and has remained there ever since, insisting that he is five years old.
		Joybubbles currently lives in Minneapolis, living off his Social Security disability pension and a job as a test subject for scent-intensity research.

	A Conversation With Joybubbles
		Joybubbles had saved up money from "smelling hog doo-doo" in Minneapolis to come to our library and listen to the 870 or so episodes that he hadn’t heard yet.
		Joybubbles left Pittsburgh on June 30, but I’m certain that no one that met him will ever forget him.
		They have a mask with "Joybubbles" on it, and you stand up at this big machine called an Olfactometer, and they pump three air samples – two of them are pure, and one has a wicked air to it, and you have to figure out the minimum intensity you can smell.

		12:17 PM Joybubbles, aka Joe Engressia, is quite possibly the man who arguably first discovered blueboxing, the art of stuffing a 2600 Hz tone into a phone in order to make a free phone call, by blowing a Cap'n Crunch whistle.
		I first heard about Joybubbles a number of years ago when I was involved in a local Ham Radio club, and we had to change the roster because the guy changed his name.
		Joybubbles was one of several "perfect pitch" deaf people that are credited with discovering the 2600 tone.

		The part about Joybubbles earning the train fare to Pittsburgh by working for the University of Minnesota as a dung sniffer (odor panelist, officially) was confirmed by the school's agriculture and engineering department.

		Joybubbles arrived May 1 and immediately began working on a second million stories to share.
		Early in the listening, Joybubbles asked Mahoney if he could bring a blanket because his library station was directly beneath an air conditioning duct.

	Is VoIP a security risk? - Computer Business Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		When a proto-hacker by the name of Joybubbles discovered in the 1960s that he could get free long distance calls by whistling at a certain frequency into a handset, he set in motion a counterculture that will be bringing the joys of hacking to a VoIP phone near you.
		Joybubbles (aka Whistler: Joybubbles is now his real name) was able to pull off that trick because he was blessed with an unusually pitch-perfect whistle, and because AT&T had, not too many years earlier, automated the switching on its network.
		If Joybubbles could rip off AT&T four decades ago using only his lips, it is not beyond imagination that the tens or hundreds of thousands of hackers active today will be able to figure out a way to avoid paying Skype or Vonage for their long-distance calls.

		One second, two seconds, three secondsand now the jaws clenched, and the bosoms heaved, and the mascara ran, and the tears fell upon the beglittered gathering like rain leaking down a crystal chandelier, and Mister Rogers finally looked up from his watch and said, "May God be with you" to all his vanquished children.
		So the first thing he did was rechristen himself "Joybubbles"; the second thing he did was declare himself five years old forever; and the third thing he did was make a pilgrimage to Pittsburgh, where the University of Pittsburgh's Information Sciences Library keeps a Mister Rogers archive.
		It has all 865 programs, in both color and fl and white, and for two months this past spring, Joybubbles went to the library every day for ten hours and watched the Neighborhood's every episode, plus specials—or, since he is blind, listened to every episode, imagined every episode.

		The story has been beat up, compressed, changed up a little, with different emphasis and names switched, but it's surprisingly accurate.
		He mentions Joybubbles (Joe Engressia) and the 2600hz tone and what it does, but does not credit Cap'n Crunch (John Draper) with discovering it, which is quite accurate.
		He also doesn't mention Mark Bernay, the Midnight Skulker, who was also a notable part of phone phreaking history and who has an excellent website of his own.
