I looked up the 1989 Nassau County (Long Island, NY call guide)
last night.  It still says areacode+number for out-of-area calls.
But it says, for "800" service, to dial 1+800+number (why the
leading 1?), and the 1 is also listed for some toll-free community
service numbers.  This is in area 516.

A footnote to the "800" stuff: "All calls to '800' telephone numbers
are station-to-station calls."
