Cost of International Calls
The FCC's regulation of Guam as "domestic" has no legal effect for telephone carriers outside the United States, for whom Guam is often not a competitive destination.

“To call a posit a posit is not to patronize it. A posit can be unavoidable except at the cost of other no less artificial expedients.

—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
“The cost of a thing is the amount of what I will call life which is required to be exchanged for it, immediately or in the long run.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“In the uttermost meaning of the words, thought is devout, and devotion is thought. Deep calls unto deep.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
