>A six minute call to central NJ placed after 5pm was $2.81

Well, let's see.  AT&T operator assisted is $1.75 + .1457/minute =
$2.62 for calls in that mileage band, so it's not so bad if you don't
have a calling card.  At least not for six minutes.

But if you had used a calling card the call would have cost $1.67.
