You really know how to hurt a guy. I live in the same neighborhood in San
Francisco as the Pac Bell ISDN product manager and neither of us can get
ISDN. Every time I see her I give her a bad time. Pac Bell says they will
start offering ISDN even if your local office doesn't support it using
remote or foreign exchange technology. Availability will be based on
demand. If my office isn't one of the first for this program, I am going
down to the West Portal shopping center wearing a sandwhich board that says
"Get on the Information Superhighway" and take orders for them!
