          Re:  Douglas Scott Reuben's "cute" article on Inward Dialing
          and how amusing is it to ask AT&T operators [particularly
          the less experienced] for obscure dialing sequences and
          locations.
          The idea of adults, presumably gainfully employed
          professionals, going around harrasing low-paid, tighly
          monitored working folks is just toooo cuuuuute!
          I wonder if Wesleyan has any "amusing" numbers?
