 	" Southern Bell doesn't charge for unlisted numbers if you
	also have a listed number.  (This is logical considering why they
	have a charge for unlisted numbers.)

	--henry schaffer  n c state univ"

Why does the TelCo have a charge for unlisted numbers?  I've never
really understood that.  Why is it logical to not charge for unlisting
one if you have another that is listed?
