Steve Wozniak and his quest for the perfect phone number...but it doesn't work out in *quite* the way you'd expect.

True enough. And I guess there isn't any way to tell how many times it was one of the other keys that was pressed (a "how many times do the operators get calls from babies" report?) I still think, though, that 8 had to be one of the easiest keys, maybe even second only to 0... (splayed hand, middle finger has best reach, maybe curvature of the palm let them skip the 0?) I'm curious now, but I think that curiosity's doomed to go unsatisfied. :)
