> How many other major cities still are unmetered?
Here in the Bay Area, at least 408 & 415 are unmetered for residential service
(when you get the flat rate service from Pacific Bell, as ooposed to measured
service), and metered for business service. I bet this is the case for the
whole Pacific Bell service area, but I don't know for sure.

Businesses may have measured 60 call or several options of payphone service, including various COPT service options. JJD onymouse@netcom.UUCP
