Frankly, one thing I've noticed PacBell doing lately that really irks me is leaving B-boxes (local loop distribution boxes) unlocked! More and more I'm seeing the new style (wide and low) boxes which are bolted closed but without a lock in the hasp. I don't much care for the concept that any jerk with the right wrench could come along and fiddle around in there. I saw one in Hollywood that wasn't even bolted closed--it was sitting there with one door swung open and no telco people in the vicinity. How about some security on the outside plant, Pacific? --Lauren--

American 7/16" hex. You can pick one up at your local Sears. It's a pretty standard size, and comes in most socket sets. -- Jim Hayes UCSD
