RE: Blue Glare
You are a funny one! But I have one question, what does it mean to have words in your phone numbers in America? Is it used like in an old mobile where you press a number several times to get the alphabets?
On your keypad, the numbers have letters attached to them. It is not used a lot, but some companies spell out some clever phrase like 1-800-YOUBITE for a dentist number. The real number would be 1-800-968-2483, the last seven numbers would match a letter on the keypad.
I am sure it has other historical significance also. Here is a link for the keypad explanation.
