I am not "freeloading," as you put it, when I use my private phone line
15 hours/day continuously (as I often do).  I am paying for 24-hour
service, and I am not concerned about the requirements to the phone
company of delivering the level of service I am paying for.

You are free to insult yourself by calling yourself a "freeloader,"
but how dare you lay your lack of self-respect on me?
