all work and no play makes Jack an idiot, er dull boy...
If you haven't worked for a Bell System 
company/Western/AT&T/Lucent/Avaya, then you have no idea what we have 
gone through. Besides, these days cellphone companies are taking the 
place of land lines and long distance. AT&T and Worldcom are going the 
way of the rotary dial phone, people still have them and use them, but 
only as a joke. My mother-in-law still has the rotary 500DM phone I 
installed for her in 1974. It still works. She also has a cell phone 
that she uses, calling cards, and a few other new gismos. AT&T is 
where it is today because of a 1984 ruling by Judge Green. Now if they 
would do the same thing for cable companies, the prices might drop 
there also.
