Ask people living in New Mexico sometime how often they have to fight the ignorance of credit card clerks and mail order companies who try to tell them they do not 'do business outside the United States' ... I had an Illinois Bell operator one time try to find the 'international routing' to connect me on a call there. What's worse these days, the American's pitiful command of English or our abysmal lack of knowledge in geography? PT]
