Until that changes, it seems there will always be a need for pay phones in certain places. I hope they won't be too hasty or aggressive in eliminating them.

I'd planned to make a pilgrimage to the Mojave Phone Booth in ~'99 or '00 (I'd already been to Carhenge and the Mike the Headless Chicken Festival; it seemed like the thing to do next) but by the time I got around to getting the trip together in earnest, the phone had been removed. And now they'll all be going. :-( Actually, except for in an airport, I can't remember a time I actually used a phone booth, or needed to. Sad!
