(and did you know that "Pennsylvania 6-5000 is claimed by its owner, the Hotel Pennsylvania, to be the oldest continuing phone number in New York City; the telephone number is based on the old telephone exchange name system: the first two letters 'PE' in PE6-5000 stand for the rotary dial numbers 7 and 3, making the number, with Manhattan's area code, +1 (212) 736-5000; the exact age of the phone number, and the veracity of the Pennsylvania's claim, is unknown; the earliest it could have existed is around 1930, when seven-digit telephone numbers were first adopted in New York City"? well, you do now!)
