4-1-1

I called 4-1-1 yesterday afternoon and asked for the number for MIT. I got patched through to an operator and when she asked what number I requested I said "MIT". She said, "What is MIT?" What is MIT? It's the Massachusetts Institute of Technology...an amazing university and my new employer as of today!

The operator must have been in Fresno, California or Dubuque, Iowa.

yes and evidently not an engineer (or anyone who watches PBS shows like NOVA) regularly moonlighting as a operator!
