Oh, well. I tried it from my phone at work (behind a ROLM digital PBX) and it too asked me for my number. Now the reason I'm putting in my two cents is 'cause I got the report for Boston OK, but Lotus has just switched to the old 693- exchange, which used to be Martha's Vineyard before the 617/508 area code division (It's aggrivating, as my extension, 617-693-4111, used to be MV information, and anyone with an outdated book will call this number (I should know, I keep a tally sheet and have 41 calls since 6/25)). I am surprised that John Levine should have gotten NYC info, as the 637-xxxx time number has been around for a while, but Lotus has just started using (617)-693 in the last 6 weeks. Kenneth R.
