yeah.  Well, I did what any right-thinking lazy American would do--I called information in the 312 area code, since that's where ICOM was last known to hang out.

Information gave me ICOM's phone number:  (708) 520-4440.

Hmmmm.  But I dialed information for the 312 area code...

Looks like the Bell company has been dicking around with the area codes again.  How hard would it have been for them to have a recording that says, for example, "Try area code 708 for this number."  But nooooooooooo.  All the recording says is "you can't call this number here.  call someone else for help."  Sheesh.  I spent 60 cents on an information call because the Bell company up in the Chicago area is too stupid to handle this problem correctly.
