Our Chelsea friend who was using grex email has now switched to provide.net
email and I don't expect her to continuing being a grex member. Other than
charcat and one other person someone mentioned, who else still wants to dial
grex from Chelsea or other points west?

Prefixing a call with 1010629- routes it through a long distance company that
charges a flat 4 cents a minute, no minimums, monthly fees, or other such
gimmicks. This has been the best deal I've found to date.

I found another long-distance company that charges 4 cents for out of state
but about 2.5 cents within Michian - I don't know if you can access it with
a prefix or whether you have to sign up with them as your carrier.
Thiry minutes a day of grexing at 4 cents is $1.20 x 30 days = a lot more
than getting an ISP account. If you want 30 hours/month USOL in Flint will
let you pay $8.33 (paid by the year), or for M-F 6-6 only $7/month.

I get LD (including inbound toll-free) for $.02/min. If someone
wanted to get a phone line installed here at my house I could host
a modem that would connect users to grex from the ann arbor exchange
over my existing internet connection.
It would be fairly easy for me to set up something where an inbound
800# goes to the existing Grex dial-in numbers, but I honestly think
the best thing for people to do is invest in some higher speed internet
access of some such, or switch to an unlimited LD plan which are
fairly reasonable..

You can now get unlimited internet access via modem for $5/month, which is
cheaper than any unlimited long distance plan that I know of.
