It doesn't seem likely that it would ever be removed. Even less active is
the PacBell (Pacific Bell) group. And it will be there forever. I currently
reside in former PacBell territory, and signed up for PacBell DSL. SBC had
already bought "The Pacific Telesis Group" by then; but they allowed the
regional operating companies to continue to sell services under the regional
names through about February of 2002.

(Sorry about setting the 'Followup-To', but I only ever used Prodigy on a
30-day trial around 1990, or so; I've been a PacBell user since the
government broke up Ma Bell in 1984; signing up for DSL in February, 2001,
when it finally became available!) ;)
