shout out to the 801
You've probably already heard, but it's worth reminding:
Starting March 1st, you'll have to dial 801 before every local call.
And your new next door neighbor's area code could be 385 if they get a new phone number.
And if your daughter's been begging for a cell phone because she's the only first grader in the whole school who still doesn't have one, then your daughter's new cell number will be a different area code than yours.
They say by March 1st, all 801 numbers in Utah will have been exhausted.
Welcome to 10-digit dialing. It's here. You'll now have to include your area code whenever you're giving out your digits.

dAnG. 10 DIGITS HU....Those were the days with only 7 digits to dial. Now I will have to re-set my cell phone numbers with all 801.
