Wow, you know you've called a small town when someone refers you to another person ("call them for the correct info") and just gives you the last four digits of their phone number.

After spending years in Boston and now in the DC-Baltimore corridor, when I visit my parents in Ohio I still have to ask if one must dial the area code to reach another person in their city. I've gotten so used to it around here - you have to dial someone's complete number to get them - the "1" included. None of this "no area code required!" craziness.
