The consecutive numbers are dialed by a computer. If you press one,

one pressing the one button.


You guys are hilarious. Is lint collecting and watching grass grow
getting boring?

It must be nice to have so much free time that you can mess with
telemarketers. They really don't care of you do this, nor does it
really beat them out of anything.

Most phone systems will simply time out and drop the call.

Do you guys also perpetuate the old wives tale that says adding an
extra penny to your phone bill crashes the phone company's billing
systems?

You are wasting your time.
