Discarded Phone Books. Nearly a month has passed since the yearly phone book drop at my residence. Only two of the nine apartments claimed their Yellow Pages. It’s the sign of the times, eh? The Web offers faster and more relevant information. Phone books are relics, and printing them isn’t eco-friendly. These seven will be recycled later today.
