I like phone booths and payphones and found a funny story about how at Burning Man some telephony geeks set up a landline phone though a satellite connection and VOIP. They ran a line under the sand to a little distance away from their vehicle and set up a free payphone just sitting there mysteriously in the desert. It was hilarious to think how people would use and perhaps wonder how a payphone got to be planted in the desert with no visible connection. Of course, some would be too "toasted" to figure it out and just assume "the phone company" put it there.

Every time I read a story and see pics or video from Burning Man I want to take a shower.
