No it wasn't. It'd can't be. Cause ICKIS said so.

All phone numbers are 7 digits, unless you live in an area that requires you to use your area code.

The only time that there were not 7-digit numbers were when the phone was first invented up until the late-40's to mid-50's?? Someone please correct me if I'm wrong

Depends upon where you lived when the 7 digit numbers came into play. There were areas in the States where they didn't get used until as late as the 70s but those were rare and very, very rural.

we had 5 digit phone #'s into the early 1980's. Even as late 1990, my grandmother actually had a 'party' line... 3-9 households on the same road used the same line and had to wait for each other to finish their calls.

Yup. My aunts had a party line 'til...hrmm...mid-eighties I think it was. Used to boggle me when I'd visit, pick up the phone to make a call and the neighbor at the next ranch was blabbering.
