I had occasion to speak with a friend today who works for Southern
Bell, concerning the implementation date for Caller ID in the Atlanta
area.  As you may recall from my previous postings, the Georgia PSC
approved Southern Bell's tariff request for Caller ID for a one-year
trial period.

The ordering information will be "in the system" on January 26 (a
Saturday, as it turns out), meaning that the service order people will
be able to take orders for it beginning that date.  I am guessing now
that since the 26th is on a Saturday, they won't actually be taking
any orders (practically speaking) until the following Monday.  We'll
see.  The Southern Bell people have promised to have the service
available in the Atlanta metropolitan are no later than Feb. 14.
