>is that a toll free number?
Of course not. Toll free numbers in USA are 10 digits beginning with
800-xxx-xxxx or 7digit beginning with 950-xxxx. Anything else is NOT toll
free.
Remember, "toll free" simply means the caller doesnt pay directly for the
call. The person/company being called pays instead and then figures out a
way to 'charge back' the cost of the call to the one user or all users.
For online services this usually results in a surcharge on the normal
access charge. In the above case, it's not a toll free number cause there
is no on-line access charge to add onto, so you pay the long distnace
charge yourself!

And NO I'm sure that they don't pay for your long distance connection.
You can usually find public access unix sites on alt.bbs. Hopefully
within your area code so you don't have to call
long distance.

Ben,
I am re-sending my question because you obviously didn't see my reference. I know
that (202-387-5445) is not a toll free number. I also know that it is reported to be
a voice phone number. I want to know if the phone number to call via modem is toll
free?????

Well, the alt.binaries.pictures.*.d groups get used very infrequently, and
the non-d groups are always cluttered with discussion. You might get enough
votes for the group, It might even get used pretty heavily the first few weeks
or months, but I've got $20 that says within a year, alt.best.of.internet would
be right back where it is now, with the possible exception of some extra
clutter consisting of a few people flaming others about not using hte .d group,
and the .d group would be averaging about 2 posts a month.

Duh! It's not just _companies_ that offer internet access, you know! A
lot of us do it for _fun_! I used to give out free accounts to this
system of mine until I got sick of registering people who'd never use
it. Now I charge $30 a year so that the people who'll take anything
that's free, but won't necessarily use it, stop wasting my time. So it
costs me heaps of money? Big deal, I would have spend the money on
computers anyway.
