Maybe this is a little too obvious, and that's why I haven't seen it
even mentioned at all (or else it was too obvious, so I passed right
over it :-), but has anyone, who has problems with Portal (or any
other site, for that matter) ever bothered to _call_ them?

It just seems a simple direct approach that yields amazing results, or
in the absolute least, a much clearer understanding of what is going
on, or going to be going on...

Since portions of the Portal map have been used as "ammunition" here,
and the name(s) and phone numbers of contacts are on that map, and
since Portal answers their phones, except when they're not around,
where they leave an answering machine on (and have been known to reply
to messages :-), I'm sure that actually having a short, complete and
perhaps even gratifying conversation wouldn't be a terrible task.
