Well, somebody brought Pac Bell someplace... SBC is actually a fairly new company. After the breakup of AT&T, one of the "Baby Bells" was called, "Southwestern Bell Telephone". I am not sure which company they bought first, but they did go on a buying spree. Along the way, they changed the name to just plain SBC. Their purchases include: Ameritech Telephone (ameritech.net) Pacific Telesys (nvbell.net, pacbell.net) Southern New England Telephone (snet.net) Prodigy (flash.net, prodigy.net, and wans.net) They retired Southwestern Bell Telephone (swbell.net) when they created SBC (sbcglobal.net). -- Norman ~Shine, bright morning light, ~now in the air the spring is coming. ~Sweet, blowing wind, ~singing down the hills and valleys.
