The same session seeks to raise the inheritance tax threshold to 175 thousand dollars, adjust the gift tax to federal limits, and define computer time and data as property to curb computer crime.

Inside the Long Lines Network Operations Center
The article profiles AT&T Long Lines as the sole operating arm of AT&T handling over 10 billion dollars in annual calls. It describes the vast network, the 12 regional switching centers, the TORC rerouting procedure, and the high stakes of managing interstate and overseas traffic with 35 000 employees across 647 cities. It notes the rack of electronic boards, the mass of operators in Manhattan, and the tension with MCI over Execunet while depicting the system as a busy, almost frontier-like command center.
