dialogue: #Person1#: Hello. Can I help you?
  #Person2#: Yes, I hope so. I would like to register for Comp Lit 287.
  #Person1#: I'm sorry, but that class is already full. And also, students are supposed to register through the touch-tone registration system.
  #Person2#: I know. I already tried to register for it by phone, but the computer won't let me.
  #Person1#: That's because it's full.
  #Person2#: But I'm a new student here. I thought maybe there was some way I could get into the class. I thought I should come and talk to you in the department office.
  #Person1#: Well, I could put you on a waiting list. But that doesn't guarantee you will get into the class. What is your name?
  #Person2#: My name is Karen Huang. That's spelled H - U - A - N - G.
  #Person1#: Alright. And what is your major?
  #Person2#: I'm a comparative literature major.
  #Person1#: Wait a minute. You're a Comp Lit major?
  #Person2#: Yes, that's right.
  #Person1#: Why didn't you tell me? I didn't know you were one of our students.
  #Person2#: That's why I'm trying to get into Comp Lit 287. I know it's a required class. And Professor Cohen told me I need to take it.
  #Person1#: The university computer system saves extra places, in class 287 for comp lit students. I can give you a special code. When you register by phone, you can use the code to get into the class.
  #Person2#: Even if the class is full?
  #Person1#: That's right.
  #Person2#: Oh, I didn't know that.
  #Person1#: Sure. Here is the code number, with information on how to use it.
  #Person2#: Thank you. So you think I will be able to get in with this?
  #Person1#: Sure. Just call the touch-tone registration system again. Then, follow the directions on the sheet. You will get in no problem.
  #Person2#: Thanks.
  #Person1#: Next time you come in here, I will recognize you.
