411 is / was a number you'd dial to get an unknown phone number. It turned into a saying "give me the 411!" which basically meant give me the information/details so it's appropriately used here in TERB.

This section is for asking for or sharing info that is not a review.

I believe it's still around but costs 50 cents to use. You dial it to get a number when you don't have access to a phone book, which is also no longer around.

P.S. If there was ever a posting/question that made me feel really old, it's this one.

It's kind of up there with "what's your 20?"
