I once got an unsolicted call and I just hung up without saying anything
other than "Hello" when I first answered the phone.  She called right
back and said we must have been cut off.  I said that we hadn't been
"cut off", but that I had hung up, and then hung up again.  She called
one more time and hung up on me when I answered.  Whatever.
