[VoIP] Numbering - existing use of 311

I am not sure but suspect as John and others have indicated I'll bet it isa
working somewhere in the vast NANP.  In Michigan where I live we have
received extended local calling to any adjacent exchange that touches
yours.  Now one would think that would mean you could dial it as a seven
digit number. Nope guess again, and you can't dial it as a 1 plus ten
digit.  It can only be dialed as ten digits.  You think I would remember
when calling the Home Depot in the next town over but almost every time it
takes me two or three tries to get it right.

Aren't there areas of the country where 10-digit dialing is used without
1+?  Or are do these only allow local or intra-LATA dialing to those few
nearby NPAs?
