For those people using AT&T long distance:

	I was looking over my bill for December, and noticed that
	calls that I made on Christmas day were charged at the
	*evening* rate, not the *night and weekend* rate.  I called
	the help number and asked what was going on.  The operator
	told me that AT&T had changed the rate structure "recently" so
	that calls made on holidays are billed at the evening rate.

	Did ANYONE see notification of this rate increase?  This is
	the first time that I had heard of it.  We *really* got burned
	because we are on the "Reach Out, America" plan, and assumed
	that calls on holidays were covered.
