Absolutely. I hadn't even taken a good look at those datapoints yet.
The dataset that I'd like to see:
000-000-0001
000-000-0010
(etc)
000-000-0002
000-000-0004
000-000-0008
000-000-0016
(etc)
I also wonder if the last 8-16 bits involves, at least in part, a count
of the length of the phone number, or at least a flag to distinguish 7
from 10 digits.
