		<title>ari &#8211; asterisk rickroll improved.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since I do a bit of asterisk, I found the asterisk rickroll (http://unf.net/2009/12/asterisk-rick-roll.php) very funny. However, I did not like the way it was implemented. I came up with this solution while rewriting our dialplan in Lua.]]></description>
