I found this ad in the Thursday, Oct 29 edition of the {LA Times}. It
was in section one, on a page of article continuations and department
store ads. It was two columns wide and about four inches long.
Although this ad does not contain any information about the discount
rate plans, it does "put it in writing" for the basic rate structure.
I don't understand the implications of the rate changes. Perhaps
someone else could comment on this?

On October 19, 1990, AT&T filed with the Federal Communications
Commission to change dial station night/weekend prices for interstate
calls within the U.S. and calls between Puerto Rico/U.S. Virgin
Islands and the U.S. mainland. Dial station rates apply when the
person originating the call dials the telephone number desired,
competes the call without the assit- ance of a Company operator and
the call is billed ot the calling station. These rates are scheudled
to become effective on November 2, 1990.
