At least here in the big city, you have a choice. Pay so much a month plus message units, or pay so much more a month and don't pay message units. If you didn't like the default option (or were just curious) you had to ask. The default here is to not pay message units (!). I was curious, and asked. Residence lines here do not have the option of paying message units. This fails to bother me. Dr. T. Andrews, Systems CompuData, Inc.
