The Newark (Delaware) exchange's calling area did NOT grow when
Delaware went to county-wide calling recently (no comment intended on
the southern fringe of New Castle County being in the Smyrna exchange
and thus getting the Kent County calling area).  The Newark exchange
borders on both Pa. and Md., and has a lopsided local calling area;
you are local to Claymont way up in the northeast and Middletown way
down in the south, plus two exchanges in southern Chester County, Pa.,
but not to neighboring Elkton exchange in Maryland.
