Most of our friends who are older than my wife and I, have not used or have a land line in years.
We must get out of the thinking that's it's younger people.
Before I retired three years ago, I owned a carpet cleaning biz.
I would say a full half of my customer base was in or approaching senior years.
Not very many of them had landlines.
The times they are changing.

Of course none of our kids or younger relatives have landlines. It was them that showed us the way.

It was in an advertisement window about taking a poll.
It was about the 5th or 6th question.

When I go to that site now, I no longer see the poll, because, I think, my
system has already stored the cookie for the poll.

I wish I could help further, because I'd really like to see the results of
this poll, plus some of the others.
