Ref mine of 26 August and the several responses:

My friend simply dialed a phone number one higher than the TAPR
number.  When it rang immediately, he concluded, as do I, that the
"All circuits are busy..." message was a sham to discourage us all
from calling and REALLY blocking up all the circuits.
It sure had an effect on me (and others).  But I wish I had gotten
through.
