Information on long distance carriers
 
        A while back, I offered to collect information on long
distance carriers: rates, area of service, quality, billing, 950-xxxx
access, etc.  and post a summary here.  Here is what I found out:

 |                                                                          |
 |                                                                          |
 |                                                                          |
 |                                                                          |

        That's right: nothing.  I, and surely other Telecom Digest
readers, are still interested in information about the scores of
carriers besides the big three, AT&T, Sprint and MCI.  We've seen
lists of access codes, and I'm sure some of you out there know more
about these companies.  The offer is still open.  If you have any
information about alternate carrier, let me know, and I'll post a
summary.  Maybe the bottom line is that no one but sleazy hotels and
COCOT owners has any use for them.  What do you know?
