Re: End of a phone number
I have similar memories of my second land line number: Five digits in a city where six or more were common at the time, and those five being the ones from 5 to 9, descending, evens first, then odds; random, yet wonderfully ordered :-). I kept it when I moved to a different city, but still had a mailbox in the former, but when a few years later I moved to another city, I had to let go :-(. However, I have managed to hold onto my mobile phone number now for more than two decades.

To avoid spam many websites make you fill out a CAPTCHA, or log in via an account at a corporation such as Twitter, Facebook, Google or even Microsoft GitHub.
I have chosen to use a more old school method of spam prevention.
