> [lots of deletia about how 10XXX+intra-LATA calling currently fails]

Keep in mind, folks, that until intra-LATA competition is opened up by the
PUC (that is, when the rate hikes go into effect), your dial tone provider
(Pac*Bell or GTE) is the only LEGAL provider of intra-LATA calling.

You can make such calls through your LD provider, but (a) you can't access
them through 1+ or 10xxx+1+ dialing, and (b) they'll charge you the credit
card surcharge, and (c) you probably won't get a good rate right now anyway.
