<singing>Eight Six Seven Five Three Oh Nine

I'm amazed somebody didn't do this before. This guy called every single 867-5309 number in the U.S. and reported on the results. If you don't know the significance of that number, there is a popular 80s song by Tommy Tutone called "Jenny (867-5309)" about a guy finding a girl's name and number on a wall and he wants to call it. The song led to telephone lines getting jammed when the song first came out, which led to the rumor that telephone companies don't give the number out or discontinued every 867-5309 out there. Obviously, this guy proved that wrong.
