When people say telecommunications, it implies data communications,
correct? I want to know if data communication and telecommunications
usually are used interchangably.

Please advise. thanks!!

[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: In the Usenet hierarchy, 'telecom' is
one of the sub-groups under the larger category 'dcom'. I would say
the two terms are mostly interchangeable, but data communications
does include a lot more than just voice. PAT]
