Here, taken from a flyer sent out by the Teleconsumer Hotline people, is an
expanded carrier list.  They are pretty good people; it's a splinter group
of something called the Telecommunications Research and Action center, located
in Washington DC.  Call them at 800 332 1124 to get a similar list for your
own local area.  There will be a lot of overlap, so you may find this helpful.
[Equal access codes are prefixed with 10, of course..]

Many of these allow what's called "casual callers", which is simply a person
who picks a given carrier for a given call, without actually having an 
account with them.  The carrier codes may vary, but the larger ones seem to
have the same number everywhere [how did they arrange this, I wonder??].
