I'd rather yearn for the days when I would have to dial a phone with
a
'dial'! :-)
I remember those days... and how long it took to dial 7 digits
(let alone 10) especially when you're in a hurry! ;-)
(And you risk hurting your fingers too!)

Actually, I still have a dial phone at my father's old house. I was asked
if I wanted to keep it.

I still have a few lying around the house too. Just don't bother to
use 'em! Just doesn't feel the same to try to call up on numbers that
force you to press for the options listed unless I was calling a
friend or family member.

But ye olde AT&T dial telephone receivers are great for cracking walnuts or
hammering nails or defending against intruders.

True, back when phones were made solid!
