If there is a court of last resort for telephone calls which begin and end "Sorry, wrong number", it is the West Virginia Supreme Court. Specifically, the office of Justice W. T. Brotherton, Jr. Due to a mixup, Brotherton's chambers' phone number is listed 171 times (but paired with the names of other state of West Virginia employees 170 of those times) in the state government telephone directory. That tabulation was reached by counting alphabetically only through the letter /K/ -- how many more are listed past that point is anyone's guess, unless you'd like to count them all and report back here. The director of telephone services for the state government extends his apologies, and guesses they will have to reprint the book, or at the very least have to change His Honor's extension. I guess so. :) Patrick Townson
