ISP Glossary:
NOS - In article , benj@bellsouth.netsays: I received a call from a Washington, D.C. number, 202-700-0000. What would cause that number to show up on my CID? [TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Well there can be numbers with four zeros and you see them now and then. For example, in Chicago, callers to police can dial 312-787-0000 which is what '911' aliases to if they know about the number, and do it in secret (use *67) as desired, where 911 won't allow that; and is chargeable; where 911 is of course auto-reverse-charged to the police and travels through a couple of sometimes inconvenient data bases on the way. So since '0000' is a legitimate (but sort of odd suffix), what about the '700' prefix? Also, admittedly odd, they do have central office codes like that sometimes. Have you checked the criss-cross listings on computer to see if the number actually exists? PAT]I was actually surprised to see a number come up as 401-301-xxxx.Apparently 301 is a valid exchange in RI now. So I wouldn't doubt adouble 0 would also be in service. I'll have to look at the assigneddatabase and check.
