Well, the article also said that charging by the packet is "outrageous",
which if I followed some of the BBN/GTE thread, was exactly what some were
proposing.
I think its only a matter of time before the PSTN and the Internet are one
and the same, and regulated by PUC's. So I'd have to think also that either
the concept of "long distance" will change, or perhaps something as crazy
as per packet, long distance internet charges will come into existance.
