During my trip to St. Petersburg in September, I got to be friends with someone and got his mobile number. When I was in St. P., I had no trouble calling this number. But I have been unable to call it from the U.S. It is not accepted as a valid number by my long distance carrier or by the calling card I have for calling Russia. The number is 11 digits as follows: 8911255xxxx I've replaced last 4 digits with x's to protect his privacy. If someone who's familiar with the Russian mobile phone system can explain to me how to call this number from America, I would appreciate it a lot. I remember when I was in St. P, there was another mobile number I called where I had to dial one number first and then enter the actual number at the prompt. -Melquiadez
