I looked very carefully at my bills before signing up for ROA and
figured out that I would probably end up paying something like two to
four dollars per month more for the Night/Weekend calls than I
otherwise would, but since the vast majority of my calling was during
Evening hours (despite urgent pleas to my wife), I would save far more
from the evening rate discount that I get with the plan.  I signed up
for whatever ROA plan gave me the biggest evening discount.
