I have an old shed on the back side of my property that has a line running to the house. It's a great system to get ahold me if I'm out that side of things. Sometimes (as has been seen with Short-wave Radio) the older ways are becoming the best ways again.
Some of us never lost the "old ways".
I love my landline, it may come with the odd spam call but it's how I keep things simple and under control and as human as can be. It does run on an ADSL system though so a powercut still knocks it out. I detest mobiles and the mentality of those who live by thumbs instead of a voice.
Wisdom knocks quietly, always listen carefully. And never hit "SEND" or "REPLY" without engaging brain first.
