Phone Book Ends == Verizon Pennsylvania’ s white pages — the traditional phone book — will now only be delivered upon request.
The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, Nov. 4, gave unanimous approval to a request by the company to change its tradition of including the listing with the distribution of its 12-million revenue producing yellow pages.
Verizon says they are doing it for the environment and that the move will save 200 tons of paper per year.
Verizon says the listings can be found on its website. It also says it is willing to provide them via a DVD.
The blue pages containing the numbers for government agencies and social services will remain.
Yellowbook, Verizon’s competitor, will continue to distribute white pages along with the paid advertising in its yellow pages.
Those still wanting a Verizon Pa. white pages should call its directory distribution center at 800-888-8448.
The white page listing can be found at http://www.verizon.com/whitepages.
More and more trees are being saved
Think about ten years from now when we have seen the last of the Inquirer and a bunch of other left wing newspapers how many more trees will be saved. It’s a liberals’ dream come true. We will be up to our kieisters in acorns and pine needles.
