[Electronics-talk] Disappointing News

[Gerald Levy]

1800TELLME?  No wonder you can't get through.  The number you are trying to 
call is only 9 digits long, excluding the 1 prefix.  I just tried each of 
Tell Me's three access numbers from New York City.  When I called the 
original number, 800-555-8355, I got a fast busy signal.  But when I called 
the other two numbers, 888-835-5630 and 800-246-4411, I was able to connect 
to Tell Me without any difficulty.
