Compare New York (212),        KW> Los Angeles (213), Hawaii (808) and Alaska (907).              More interesting phone trvia:              Alexander Graham Bell died at his summer home in Nova Scotia on August 2,        1922. Two days later all telephone service in the United States and Canada        was suspended for a full minute at the precise moment when Bell was lowered        into his grave. 60,000 telephone operators stood silently at attention and        did not connect any new calls as the continent's 13 million telephones went        quiet.              https://bbs.lc/5lYXI                     Jay              ...
