818 Stigma: Like, It’s So Over!
A shout-out to all you Vals….number redemption is at hand! New numbers over the hill will get the kinda cool sounding 747 area code. I’m like…..dude, wasn’t that a plane? But really, being something of an area code freak–yes, I’ve even written an op-ed about it, when the 310 went to 10-digit dialing because of the 424 overlay. And I’m still not happy about it.
