I spoke with a woman in Chicago recently that was constantly getting
calls for the bus station on her cellular phone.  She claims that one
time she took a reservation from a woman, and told her that there was
a special "buffet service" available, and that the bus would pick her
up at her house!

[Moderator's Note: That is weird. The Chicago Greyhound-Trailways
Terminal gave schedule information on 312-FInancial 6-5000 for about
forty years.  Only recently they installed a centrex system, in the
312-781-29xx series, and give schedule/fare information on 781-2900.
Does her cell phone number come anywhere close to that?  PT]
