PLA zine

From 1994 until 1997 the Phone Losers of America put out 46 issues, plus the one unauthorized issue. This is where the PLA all began. Most of the content of the PLA stemmed from these PLA issues. Keep in mind that all of these issues were written many years ago. Some of the ideas and techniques described just might not work anymore. They are here simply for historical purposes. So put yourself in a 90's state of mind and start reading...
The complete 'zine collection was compiled in 2011 for the book Phone Losers of America: The Complete Zine Collection.
