I think you mean 354 5333. I know you do, I used to have that phone number. I got hangups night and day, until I finally figured it out and made the phone company change my number for free.

I can't remember the number now, it was something like Westminster 9000, but I wonder if this was done deliberately by some disgruntled high-ranking telephone person.
