My January, 1991 bill for two of my lines has an insert which says
that the TT charge will be dropped as of sometime in Feb, 1991.

They will also drop the installation charge for such service.  They
siad that recovery of part of the lost revenue will come in the form
of a decrease in one of the credits now being received on the bill.
