Not metal related, but I know Gunner is somewhat familiar with them, so:

Hypothetical situation is two individuals are neighbors in New York and one
has a cell phone with xxx area code assigned.

The one with a cell phone takes a trip to California and asks his neighbor
to call him at his "cellular" number if any problems occur during his
absence.

His roof gets blown off in a storm and the neighbor calls on his land phone,
using the local xxx area code assigned to the cellular number.

The question: Is the call made from New York to California on a land based
phone to a cellular phone a local call to the neighbor reporting the roof
being blown off?

Thanks in advance,
Ace

If you call that local number, even if the cell is in Bum****
Arkansas..its still a local call to you. If the cell is on a
nationwide network..there is no roaming charges to him either.
