     I just got off the phone with the most WONDERFUL young lady at Michigan
  Bell (and most of you know I don't get along much with them), and she tells
  me that May first, Michigan Bell will be combining the TOTAL of lines you
  have in your home (billed to ONE bill) and giving us that amount of calls
  to play with in any fashion we'd like.

That's nice.

Of course, that's the way it always used to work before December 1991 when
they changed to the current system (which they couldn't have done back in
the days when the phone company was still regulated).  So, in typical
Michigan Bell style, they're going back to the old way of doing things and
making it sound like we're getting something new.

Actually, I'm not sure this is true.  I do know that in December they
changed from giving a simple total of all calls made to listing the counts
separately for each line.  But I never made more than the minimum number of
calls on each line before then, so I don't know how it would have been
billed.  I would appreciate hearing from someone who knows.
