Phone Book Recursion

If you're like me, you look up most phone numbers online - especially if you have DSL/Cable. Phone books are annoying, used maybe once a year, a waste of paper and just take up useful storage space.

Well I just found out how to cancel future phone book delivery to your house. If you normally get (Qwest) Dex phone books, call (toll-free) 1-877-2-GET-DEX. You might sit on hold for a couple minutes but soon a real person comes on, gets your information, asks why you want to stop delivery, and that's that. Voila - chuck your books in the recycling bin and never look at a phone book again. Storage space is now available.
