This recording is there PRIMARILY for the people who have chosen MCI as
their primary carrier and are trying to make a collect, AT&T calling card,
or person to person call.  This person would have just dialed 0+, but would
have been switched to MCI because MCI is the primary carrier for the line.
 
MCI doesn't really seem to want to use the equal access trunks for anything
but equal access customers; they want the rest of their customers on the
other lines.
