Thanks for the info. Some of those I actually use.

Imagine if they changed 911 to like 1911. The fallout would be an epic fail.

Any one remember when the phone number were only six digits: 55-55-55 It wasn't that long ago.

Hey! That's the number for JUNIOR SAMPLE'S AUTO SALES !!! I still got that number on speed dial !!!
