LA Weekly:

Like many people, Petrick had come to rely on his cellphone. He wasn’t as good as he used to be about memorizing phone numbers. Excitedly, he recalled one person’s cell number and dialed it.His elation, however, quickly turned to anxious frustration as the automated voice told Petrick that he could not place a collect call to a cellular phone. He could only call out to a land line. Trouble was, he hadn’t memorized any land-line numbers.“I realized right away that I had a problem,” Petrick says.

It’s really only problem if you are, like Petrick, in jail at the time of trying to make that phone call. How many of us would be caught in the same pickle? I don’t know anyone with a landline and I couldn’t tell you anyone’s cell phone number.
