Or, one step further, if I need to call the ramp or hotel in a foreign city, here's the number for the Howard Plaza (02) 2700-xxxx. I'm clueless.
I guess it's better to be dumb when it doesn't matter than dumb when it counts. Sorry about the thread drift.

Well, way back in the day before everyone had a cellphone there was this thing called a pay phone and a service called making a "collect" call.
