 		Calling the 1-800 number from Denmark also incurs a charge.

 		Ney, im new but i can help...i hope....
On the talk of calling back tonight, its now 8 oclock and ive phoned, trying all the options, and nothing appears to have changed, though when i called the second time i heard a male voice right at the very begining, but that only happened the once. I'll try again later about 11 oclock and post my findings!

 		Hey. Just tried the U.S. number from my cell phone and noticed something interesting...

At the end of the terminating messags, it "hangs up" and then goes to a repetitive beep. The thing is, on a cell phone when someone hangs up it simply disconnects, you will not get a repetitive beep like you would on a land line.

This leads me to believe the "beeping" is actually recorded. Don't know if this will make a difference but maybe there's more that can be done... i.e. wait long enough or enter the right series of digits during the beeping...

 		Ok, its 10:30 and ive tried calling back. After exhausting all the paths, nothing has changed! Its still saying daytime service though, any guesses on when daytime service stops and nightime begins? My guess is midnight, unfortunatly then i will be trying to sleep! Anyone up for trying then?

 		The things the options mention are of course the seven wonders of the ancient world.
they are..
colossus of rhodes
lighthouse of alexandria
hanging gardens of babylon
temple of artemis
statue of zeus at olympia
the pyramids of egypt
the mausoleum at halicarnassus
only the pyramids of egypt are still standing though.

 		The co-ordinates point to somewhere in NYC, I think. An intersection in Long Beach, maybe. Can someone confirm?
