Lines: 12 Well, if you implement this the in the spirit of the original intent, it would probably mean some savings to telenet. As part of the access charge, the phone company would provide service between the exchanges and the network point of presence. I have to believe that this would mean a reduction for TELENET, which has to have numbers that are a local call to most of its subscribers. Also, the number called from info would certainly be useful to these data carriers if it were available. Unfortunately, this bill makes little sense for the DATA over VOICE system scenario rather than an integrated network. -Ron
