remembering 312
Aaron Freeman speaks of something I remember well: being exiled from the 312 area code. Before I moved from Chicago, the area code of our home phone--which had been 312 since there had been a 312--was changed to 773. And the insult was that the houses across the street were still in the 312 area code. I was livid about the change, but there was nothing I could do.
Is that the reason my current home--in the 310 area code--seems like the next best thing?
