The Last Telephone Booths in America
Thursday November 22, 2007
There are not many Superman-style telephone booths left in the United States. This Washington Post article talks about the last real phone booth (with walls) in the D.C. area and discusses this vanishing phenomenon across the U.S.A. as cellular phones have become ubiquitous.

Outdoors in Amish or Mennonite farm areas you can still find enclosed phone booths like this. They will use them for important business or emergencies, but are philosophically opposed to having personal phones in their home where they could be used to excess.
