How Dumb Do You Think We Are?

I grabbed the Sunday paper yesterday and looked up the NY Times crossword puzzle. I have never been able to finish a Sunday one, but I give it a try. At the bottom of the clue part there is a phone number you can call to get three of the answers. A fee is charged for this "service".
I got done what I could get, paged through the rest of the section and found two pages later the completed crossword printed.
I wonder how many people called.
