I live in Santa Cruz, which is a part of the 408 area code.  When I
dial numbers in the greater Bay Area (415), I am required to dial a 1+
first.  Even if I want to make a zone 3 call within my own area code
(say, to Sunnyvale or San Jose), I am still required to dial a 1+
before the rest of the number.  I don't know whether I am the norm or
the exception in the 408 AC.
