Dialing Requirements
Local calls, regardless of the area code, are dialed as 10 digits, namely, area code, plus 7-digit number. Long-distance calls are dialed as 11 digits, namely, 1 + area code + the number. Because of the overlay, 7-digit dialing from telephones using either area code is not permitted.

Famous quotes containing the word dialing:
“Although I will inherit darkness
I will keep dialing left to right.
I will struggle like a surgeon.
I will call quickly for the glare of the moon.
I will even dial milk.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
