But anything can be taken too far. Many officials, myself included, have said
"I would rather miss a travel than call one that wasn't." But would you rather miss ten than call one that is wrong? I wouldn't. How many?
Two? Five? Everyone must draw his own line.

I did not know there was a count. I do not want to miss any call, period. And I certainly do not want to call a travel that is not there. I would rather miss a minor or technical travel, then call a travel that clearly is not there.
