Paranoia much?

Last night I had to learn how to disable voicemail in somebody's room. This came at the request of the front desk manager because she wanted to shut this man the heck up. He ranted and raved at multiple people that by offering voicemail service we were invading his privacy. He also declined the complimentary USA Today because he's "pissed off at the editor" - something about being in George Bush's pocket.

So I told the front desk manager that we'd disable his voicemail, and she said she was going to call and tell him. Keep in mind that she has already spoken with him and he does not want to use the voicemail system. Apparently he wasn't in the room, so she left him a voicemail. We had a good laugh at her expense. And then we turned off the voicemail.

How does voicemail invade his privacy? Every scenario I can come up with is uber-paranoid and indicates his need to up his dose of lithium.
