Trivia Wednesday #133: Area Codes

answer #132 - 1830s (When did fireworks become colorful?) (The multi-hued displays we know now began in the 1830s, when Italians added trace amounts of metals that burn at high temperatures, creating beautiful colors.)

Extra fun fact: Other additives also produced interesting effects. For example, calcium deepens colors, titanium makes sparks, and zinc creates smoke clouds.

question #133 - How many states only have one area code?
