This is from Variety-N-Spice BBS, Greater Detroit, MI, (313) 885-8377,
*-N-1, 300/1200/2400 as posted to another BBS, where I saw it.

The information reported here is claimed to be current as of 3/90.

The Sysop claims that Michigan Bell and apparently the other Baby Bells
(Hells Bells!) are attempting to define all phone lines, including
residential voice lines, as BUSINESS lines if a modem is used on them
incidentally... even once! This means higher rates AND hefty deposits
for modem users. This is a Bad Thing for the disABLED community.
