Back when I was in telecom, one of the trade mags had an April Fool's
issue. One of the news articles was a panicked story about the phone
companies running out of imaginary 555- numbers for Hollywood.

The spokesperson said they were working on FXing (ed note:
transporting foreign telephone numbers) to allow for new imaginary
numbers to be created. They were waiting on research on how to bill
for this imaginary service, but since they had experience billing for
not printing phone numbers they had faith they could come up with a
fair price.
