I've been with AT&T a long time, and when they wanted to give me some extra 
discounts on my monthly bill, there was a catch to it.  When I asked what the 
catch was, the person I spoke to told me that I'd have to contract for 1 year.  
I asked them if they were looking at my history on their monitor and received 
an affirmative. I then asked if they didn't feel a little silly asking that 
question.  A very good friend of mine from the "frozen north" advised me to get 
away from them long ago, but I hung in there.  I don't know whether I'm 
stubborn or was just curious to see what new wrinkle they would come up with to 
the detriment of their customers.  (-:[

P.S. Their "AI" answering machine can now understand whole sentences and I'm 
tempted to tell it it's fired.  (-:0
