I seem to recall quite some time ago seeing a discussion about
being able to bypass my equal-access carrier and use any of the 
long distance carriers (even if not subscribed to) by prefixing
the number I wish to call with the proper 4 digit code (1022, 
1088, etc.)
I was telling this to a friend and he was quite disbelieving. Now
I'm not sure if I remember it correctly.
Could someone explain if this is true and how it works? Also,
could someone repost a list of the 4 digit codes for the various
carriers?

Post or mail to me as appropriate.
