We take 'em to the range and recycle them that way ;-) A great use for those big fat phone books is to shoot with a target attached. We take ‘em to the range and recycle them that way ;-)

Like you, I do not use them. I don't have an iPhone, but I find what I need on the internet much faster. Our phone books just sit and collect dust and take up space. So much wasted paper. And I agree; I LIKE reading books, newspapers and magazines ( I even subscribe to the News-Times ). I will go to a Kindle kicking and screaming! The only thing I like about not buying CD's; you can pick and choose your songs so you are not stuck with songs you really don't much care for. But I think that good old vinyl did sound the best, IMHO. We still have land line service, too. I think it's pretty scary to just have a cell phone for your home phone. Got rid of Verizon and their FIOS ( God, that is a pantload of a service if there ever was one! ). Went to Comcast. Reading stuff like this makes me feel OLD! How about you?
