  It depends on where are you calling from. Every country has its own sequence
of digits to intiate an overseas call. Where I come from, you have to dial
"00" (this is equivalent to the 011 in the US), then wait for dial tone, then
dial 1-309-555-1212.
  In other countries the sequence is different. In some countries the only way
to call overseas is via the operator (no direct call) and you have to wait
sometimes an hour or so until the call is made...
