After calling for help take an aspirin.  If you
are alone move to somewhere where you can be seen
or at the very least unlock your front door.

Then lay still and wait for help.

That would be my advice.

The cough thing has been pretty vigorously debunked -- it apparently can work,
but only for certain types of heart attacks, and is actively bad for others.
Listen to Mary.

Excerpt:

If you were a doctor and knew exactly what you were doing, it might help save
your life. If, however, you are not a physician and you misjudge the kind of
cardiac event you're experiencing, cough CPR could kill. This "helpful" e-mail
could help you right into a grave.

Peruvian food is garlicky (sp?) ;) and sometimes very hot. It reminds me of
of carribean and spanish food put together. The last time I was there I got
a seafood Paella, also called Paella Valenciana. It was soooo goood! Hey if
you know anyone from the bay area.. let them know we are getting together!

Amsterdam Grexer clees will be in Frankenmuth, MI on Tuesday, and I'm driving
up from A2 to hang out with him.  Still have some car seats empty...

paella valenciana was Spanish, last time I remembered.  Peruvian food 
sounds interesting.  Wonder if they do anything interesting with 
potatoes (the potato is native to Peru and grows in over a 100 
varieties there)

IWLTA that I saw something I thought was cool at the Sandy Beach "park" at
Baw Beese Lake outside of Hillsdale:  They had an inflatable raft - which I
later learned was called the Iceberg - white, which judging by the height of
the kids I saw on it, rose ~12 feet at its top, pyramid shaped.  It had grab
handles as you would see for rock climbing.  The kids swam out to it from
shore (~100 yards), wearing life preservers, and were free to climb it, jump
off it, fall off it, into water which I assume was sufficiently deep, while
a life guard watched from a nearby row boat.  I guess you paid your $2 for
maybe a half hour session.

Highlights of RISKS digest volume 22 issue 82:

--      Diebold voting machines have flaws which would allow
        practically anyone (from voting officials to teenagers)
        to undetectably alter votes or vote as many times as
        they liked.

--      Inadequate security at a South African bank allowed a
        thief to steal account/PIN combinations and transfer
        other people's money to himself.

--      A thief in NYC used keyloggers on computers at Kinko's
        to steal credit card numbers.

And more (the last item is hilarious).  /a/r/u/russ/risks/risks-22.82

After 14 phone calls in which I asked to get rid of the recording that I am
getting instead of a busy signal ("let repeat dialing ..... 75 cents"), in
which people either never heard of repeat dialing, or said they had cancelled
it, then said you had to cancel enhanced repeat dialing, then said you had
to cancel the recording separately, etc., someone said they would sic the big
guns on this problem (it was all cancelled and the recording persists).  The
result of all this is that today I got an automated email from the SBC
Internet dept. saying they could only deal with my problem if I had an SBC
IP address.
