[VoiceOps] Three Digit Numbers

Definitely not. Especially with stuff like 2-1-1 which (at least in Michigan) routes on the county level.

We have a nationwide US footprint and had to build an internal system to handle routing to 211, 311, 511, 711 & 811 based on calling number. It was a real pain tracking down all of the numbers we need to translate to, though.
