The 'find' command (as used in Konqueror) is a very disc-intensive and
lengthy process, particularly on large drives. I suggest that you go to a
console and use the 'locate' command instead. For more information, type 'man
locate'.

A word of caution: I would advise against posting your phone numbers so
openly over the Internet. You'll never know what kind of sick weirdos there
are out there. Besides, your voice number doesn't have an area code (only a
country code) :-)
