I hear ya. I was upstate New York last year. None of those small towns had any kind of working public telephone. I saw a number of abandoned non-working phones, though. It was only when I crossed over to Canada that I started seeing Bell Canada payphones. Scary to think how isolated you could be just for losing your cell phone.

Not where I live! If you don’t own a cellphone and get stranded somewhere, you’re SOL. (Big-city residents can pick their jaws up off the floor now; in small towns and rural areas nationwide, “staying connected” simply isn’t a priority.)
