This week's issue of {Communications Week} as an interesting blurb
entitled "Area Codes Near Exhaustion." In addition to mentioning the
forthcoming 917 code assigned to New York City, they mention that US
West  "is studying the possibility of restructuring dialing patterns
so that additional prefixes become available." [in Washington state]

Good grief! Well, let's see. That could mean just about anything now,
couldn't it?
