      - And like why would she not reach out to the company she pays for the landline rather than her neighborhood email list? -- nm - Kellyanne Scrabblestats Feb 13, 18:04 1
        
        The fact that she uses the term "landline" is confusing. A novice wouldn't use that term -- nm - Mop Feb 13, 20:20
