Speaking of AC 215, I made a toll free (800) call yesterday from
Detroit (ac 313) and got the following message:
  
   "Your call cannot be completed as dialed. Please hang up and
    try again  215 A Y".
 
I wasn't calling the 215 area code, I was calling a number in San
Jose.  What gives??
 
Also - does anyone know what kind of switches Michigan Bell uses
(1AESS's, 5ESS's, etc).

Thanks.
