But let me tell you a Google Voice story.

I have a Google number, but haven't used it very often. So, it asked me to verify that I still want the number. Okay, fine. But they confirm by calling my cell phone where I don't get service at my house where I'm on the computer trying to verify. So, I don't know if I still have Google voice or not. It's probably something I can solve if I have a couple of spare hours and my patient level is high.

Thanks for the suggestion. If no one comes up with a different solution, I'll gird my loins and wade into the Google morass.
