Who stays on the phone for 15 hours? Wouldn't one hang up and call later? I actually don't feel that sorry for him. I actually think its stupid.

The same guy was on the Melbourne Channel 9 news in a story about a drug addict in a city McDonalds store.

read it in the SMH, cant find the article, but it had a photo attached of him on the phone, and I thought i say a Skype logo on the back of the phone, so call was by Skype, so if had been to a (02) XXXX XXXX number 100% free (maybe not)
