Sent by a friend. Kind of cool. How to call a lot of companies and bypass punching numbers so you can talk with a real person, without dealing with the phone tree. http://www.mjmorningshow.com/phonelist.html
If you don't push anything (like when it says "if you have a touchtone phone, push "1" now), then you get to talk to a real person quite rapidly. I do that all the time and it usually works!
