A half-hour section of an [[industry call]] immediately following the [[period of joinder]], during which the call convenor tries to identify who has dialed in. If the convenor is lucky, the call will be richly attended by participants who are prepared to admit it. Even then, extracting those confessions will involve long periods of static, punctuated by five people speaking at once, which the convenor will have to decipher. This can be a jarring experience, but not as jarring as the experience when no-one has dialled in. That can be quite the self-awakening for the convenor, as she finally grasps, in public, how little the rest of the world cares for her project. | A half-hour section of an [[industry call]] immediately following the [[period of joinder]], during which the call convenor tries to identify who has dialed in.
