Getting closer...

The three BOCs in the U S WEST territory merged about a year ago and
adopted the collective name "U S WEST Communications".	Some people may
still use the name Mountain Bell informally, but it doesn't officially
exist anymore.	(Which is different from Patrick's situation, Illinois
Bell still being a distinct subsidiary of Ameritech.)
