Suggestions: 1. Wait until you are out of the area to call B. If this information (that you associate with A) is so sensitive, then maybe the return call can wait. 2. Use a portable cellular phone to call B. 3. Call your office and have them relay the call (via conferencing or three-way). 4. Use one of A's unlisted numbers. (Gee, maybe I ought to set up a practice. "Living with Caller-ID -- Consultations" The doctor is IN.) That'll be one dollah, please! John Higdon | P. O.
