Question set up: I had trouble once calling a friend of mine who lives across town. I recieved the classic "Fast Busy" several times. Knowing that fast busy means nasty things, I called the operator in hopes of finding out what the trouble was. Instead of the operator telling me the problem, I was immediatly connected! BTW, I am in Minneapolis, 835 exchange, my friend was in the 496 exchange. Questions: I thought that there were many many different routings available for inter-CO calls? Am I mistaken? Where can I find out the what the various tones (busy signals, ringing tones, and the like) mean.
