In this age of portable connectivity, finding a payphone is akin to finding a living fossil. Formerly ubiquitous, they are getting rarer and rarer. Finding one that actually still works is even more miraculous. I remember using payphones to call my friends from downtown, I remember using them to call taxis. It's a part of life that my kids will never understand, with their photo-taking, music-playing, internet enabled personal communications devices. Maybe that's for the best.
