I have heard that in the latest batch of phone bills sent to the Wilmington (Del.) exchange, there was a note saying that a certain bug had been corrected. The bug was that 347-xxxx dialed from a Wilmington phone would make a local call to Unionville, Pa. on 215-347 prefix. Unionville is just north of Kennett Square (uses 215-444, which IS supposed to be a 7-digit local call from Wilmington, although a recent message from me to telecom indicated 11 digits for the local call the other way around). 347-xxxx from Wilmington is supposed to have NO meaning that I know of.
