Nerdy Phone Numbers

Saw this little gem, though I think they goofed it.

Perhaps it should have been

(741) - 555 - 7805

Or,

324 - 5532

741-555-8051 or 741-324-6800 would also be good.

To my knowledge there is only one custom area code in the United States - 321 - and it is assigned to the part of Florida that hosts Cape Canaveral

Well my number ends with 0864, is that nerdy enough? I tried to get 3600 but it wasn't available.

Not exactly a full telephone number (missing the zip code), but in 1981, Tommy Tutone released the song "867-5309/Jenny". Apparently, people in several area codes would dial this number and ask for Jenny. Many people had to change their numbers (from 867-5309) to avoid these sorts of calls. Strange, but true, one of my bosses set the Password for a login on one of our products to 8675309, I remember using the song lyrics to remind me of the password from time to time.
