Thank you for stepping up. I read through your website, and watched the AT&T documentary in whole. I have watched several film documentaries from that same man before, he does a good job. https://telephoneworld.org/3345-2/ I have AT&T land line service, but not their long distance service. Is this post stating that all AT&T long distance operators are gone, or are the local operators gone as well? I'm wondering if I dial "0" now, if I will still be directed to an operator? I haven't attempted it in years, for fear of being charged.
