When I was growing up out in the middle of nowhere in Illinois I knew a couple farmhouses not far from my house that had a "party line", a single phone line for about 6 houses that might've been charitably called a town sometime around 1870.
And 20 years ago we kind of laughed at the kids who lived in those houses.
But today I found this.
And I have to say it's kind of shocking. Maybe even a little scary. Some people can't even comprehend not having Broadband. Others look at you funny if you say you don't have cable TV (or immediately assume that you have satellite TV) .
But 130 years after the invention of the telephone, no entire community of people in the USA should be without phone service. It just boggles the mind.
