Not happening.  I run my own servers and the confirmations simply had
not arrived.  Strangely enough I went back to the web page and performed
a "verify" on the phone numbers and immediately got the verification
message stating the numbers were not listed (since I had not yet gotten
the confirmation and confirmed).  I went back to the page and re-registered
and approx 15 minutes later I got the confirmation for the "second" phone
number but still to this point have not gotten the one for my primary or
additional numbers.  Very strange.  Oh well.  I'll give it a while and if
I still haven't gotten it I'll try it again until it work.
