>>I am using my copy of the Yellow Pages to elevate my laptop. I probably have not opened it in over a year.

I was surprised to read the assertion (albeit from a trade association representative) that the print Yellow Pages have "remained strong."<<

That surprises me, too.

The last time I used an actual phone book was last year, when I was moving. My computer was already packed up, and I needed to look something up. But I threw the book away a few minutes later, and then opted not to receive one in my new place.

But I suppose that there are still a lot of people who don't use computers for everything. Those of us who spend time on SI aren't members of that set.
