A minor rant/annoyance.

They are running out of phone numbers in Southern Nevada, so they are going to "overlay" another area code here. This means after May next year we will have to dial the full ten digit number for local calls. What a PITA.

I suppose they are doing this to avoid the inevitable ruckus that would ensue if they split the area between the old and new codes. This would mean everybody in one area would get a new area code forcing businesses to change all their data. They split the state some years ago and the original area code was retained by the Las Vegas area, much to the disgust of the rest of the state.
