So here we are.. 21st century.. space flight technology is hitting 60ys old ( almost retirement age! ) and where is the telco at?

ever notice if you dial a 12 digit number (1+ac+prefix+4) and you are in an extended calling area that only requires 7 digits, that the lil recorded message comes on and tells you you don't need the 1/0 or the area code and to waste your time redialing...

If the darn computer is so smart that it knows you don't need it.. why doesn't it just 'drop' the extra and connect the darn call?!?
