DIAL 'S' FOR SEINO

etting tired of dialing a phone number and getting a fax machine instead? Or having to deal with all the new area codes?
You’re not alone.
Diana Seino, executive assistant to Scott Gilbert, chief executive of Saatchi & Saatchi Los Angeles, thinks the country should adopt specific area codes for fax machines, cellular phones or pagers.
Seino’s system would work like this: Similar to current toll-free codes 800 and 888, fax numbers would have dedicated area codes such as 111, 222, 333, 444 and 555, while cell phones would use other codes, such as 666, 777 and 999.
