The U.S. telecom network is rapidly running out of
area codes.  Discussion in ANSI telecommunications
network committees suggest that 1+ may be required
for all long distance calls, so that LD calls can
be recognized without restricting area codes to 
N0N or N1N.  For example, in the brave new world,
I could be in area code 222, and be dialed
as 1-222-555-1212.
