That's because nobody is really there.... It just a huge network of
voice mail systems that are linked through fiber(blazing speed) that
allow you to be transfered anywhere in the IBM network with the simple
push of a button(followed by the #).. There is really only a couple
of people that really work in any of their building... Most work from
home,using their own personal voice mail that is connected to the IBM
voice mail... that is connected to....(I think you get the picture)

If you leave a message... they will return your call in (1) business
year.
