Banj, I just barely remember the one we had when I was little, it was CHerry30497. Wonder why we only used the first two letters instead of all three as it seems fellow "nerds" did in the UK?

Ah, on further exploration, I find that we did use more in some places. Have a look at the Telephone Exchange Name Project. Nice mention of BUTTERFIELD 8 and PENnsylvania-6500.
