I just returned from a visit to San Jose, and I was surprised to find that the local 1991 PacBell phone book lists various area codes for Denmark. Denmark did away with area codes in 1988/89 (and I would be very surprised if PacBell wasn't notified of the change), but that information hasn't made its way into the San Jose telephone book. Are other US phone books up-to-date in this matter? Claus Tondering E-Mail: ct@dde.dk Dansk Data Elektronik A/S, Herlev, Denmark
