Thanks for the quick response.  I forgot to mention vrf-lite, fyi.  And can i leak routes to the main routing table from a vrf?

vrf-lite is no problem, the articles above apply to this as well. Also, see my example as to how to leake between the default vrf and another vrf.
You all are so nice for responding so quickly.  I wish wasnt so thick on this stuff.  It seems complicated from what I have read.  I basically have a vlan configured for vrf and several t1's in this vrf.  There is a phone system that serves not only this customer (in the vrf) but others as well, not in the vrf.  The phone system is going to send a request to the 6500 (with the vrf) for 192.168.3.x and will not find it in the global routing table.  The simplest way to allow this route to be known is...
Cisco does not support any type of static routing as the document outlines, I would personally go with the dynamic route. Configure a GRE between the Global and the VRF as http://netnix.org/index.php?post_id=4 outlines as it meets the needs in what you are trying to accomplish.
