Quick note

[cyrano]

I got a new phone (planned obsolesence kicked in after a year and a half, and the speaker finally drew up its resignation notice in the old one) and the new one has all those neat gadgets like games and alarm rings and customised classical music rings. So my phone now rings with Sousa's Liberty Bell March.
I could have customised rings for various people but I'm just not feeling that geeky yet.

obsolete has a purpose

Speaking in the role of a Luddite, do you have an old-fashioned phone? One that doesn't need electricity? Considering the energy situation in this state, and a recent experience at my uncle's it might be good to have such a gadet. Opportunity might decide to call while your power is out, and you wouldn't want to miss it.
