    When the N0/1X area codes run out, we will indeed see NNX (prefix)
    codes assigned as area codes.  In fact, the ordering list for
    picking NNX codes for such use has been around for MANY years, just
    waiting for the day it might have to be used....

  Who is in charge of deciding these things?  Surely not AT&T anymore.
