speaking of which, a local friend had this really interesting service
that I can only describe as a `front end' or secretary.  You called her
number and got a recording.  If you knew a certain code, you could ring
though - otherwise you had to leave a message.

Naturally they discontinued that service.  Is anyone aware of anything
close?  (Philly metro area)   Even being on Do Not Call hasn't stopped
them.

I wish they'd take the `locator' off my cel phone.
