    Exactly!  *Any* wrong number you connect to *is* *a* *felony*! And
not only that, but you can be charged with more than *one* felony!

    I hope you guys are beginning to realize that the laws are pretty

them.

    I, myself, am not going to be the one to go to court in an attempt
to test these laws.
