Answer 2

Answer 3

I've seen a few. Mostly in rural areas.

Answer 4

usually at airports

Answer 5

I haven't seen any.

Answer 6

Yes, but most of them in Sacramento look like this...

Answer 7

Answer 8

Some of the remaining ones are used for public rest rooms. One would have to have a dire emergency to use some at certain locations. The stench would make a California Condor throw up.

Answer 9

A very few..... and the ones that ARE there have been vandalized
Sad.... !! We still NEED Public Phones--- someone could have a "dead cell phone", lost it, had it stolen, or on "roaming'---not getting a signal--and have an EMERGENCY.
"Vandals" should get sentenced to a minimum of "1 year extremely **** LABOR"---I doubt they'd find "kicks & giggles" in destroying other's PROPERTY Then--or Again !!

Answer 15

Answer 16

Answer 17

I haven't seen one anywhere recently. It's a shame not to have them every where but when I did see them they were almost always vandalized.

Answer 18

At least there is here in Jersey.

Answer 19

There should always be a public phone service.

Answer 20

Booths, no. Phones, yes.

Answer 21

There must be but I haven't seen any in years. I have seen some phones on polls in places like Grand Central Station but none in public. No place for Clark Kent to change.

Answer 22

It's been years and years since I saw a public phone anywhere. They should still be out there though, but I think private ownership ruined them.

Answer 23

I haven't seen one in years.

Answer 24

There are still a few in the city that I reside in. I think they should be maintained because they are still useful.

Answer 25

They are a dying breed, but I have seen a few in my travels. We have an operable one outside of our local telephone company. My grandson was fascinated with it, as he had never seen one, until he came for a visit this summer.

Answer 26

Not that I know of. I haven't seen one in years. I saw on the news last night that they are doing away with the red phone booths in England.

Answer 27

A lot in India.

Answer 28

This one is close to one of my clients in Houston.

Answer 29

As far as I know. But they aren't covered as they used to be.

Answer 30

I haven't seen one in years.

Answer 31

But they are few and far between and aren't really booths any more.

Answer 32

Not many though

Answer 33

… but do they work?

Answer 34

Lots of them in England. And they are not all vandalized like the few that remain in America. The phones still actually work, unlike the few that remain in America.

Answer 35

Very tough to find. The lines are decrepit. I lived in a town just north of Seattle where the lines were installed by GTE in the 70s. They were so noisy they were unusable, what with all the drizzle and rain here. I'm afraid they are almost gone.

Answer 36

I wish we had more of them like we did back then.

Answer 37

They are becoming more scarce.

Answer 38

Phone stalls like they have always had here. People vandalized the booths for the last 20 years.

Answer 39

I saw one down in Destin, FL about 8 months ago.

Answer 40

Answer 41

If there are, I haven't seen one in years.
