>>PacBell has been charging "message units" for local connection now for some time. I use the net a lot and my LOCAL bill can easily exceed $60. There has to be a better way for those of us who don't want to spend $$$ just to get an onramp.<< Tha is a pity. I have unlimited local access from BellAtlantic for the MCI local number in the Boston area for about $30+/MONTH. I guess competition in local service should help you. Are you sure there is no flat rate for numbers within your metropolitan area? pancho BTW this news may not yet be out in the trading floor. AOL should tank a few points. If I did not have such a large short position I would take a quick short here for a few points.
