Why in the world are phone books still distributed?

There is absolutely no use for them. I would be shocked if one person on Fluther has used one in the past 5 years. They are just unnecessary. And what a waste of paper! Am I wrong? Holy shit. I could not believe it when one showed up on my door step today. Do you foresee them stopping phone books anytime in the near future? Obviously it should have happened 10 years ago but didn’t for whatever reason…
