with phone booths. I am not making this up, just repeating what I read in the Sunday paper. Apparently, in some places phone booths - er, boxes - are lined up every 100 feet. And the telecoms are lobbying to change the rule to allow them every 50 feet.
 
I think I speak for the entire rest of the world when I say "WTF?".

The problem is your Sunday paper, not phone booths in London.

Yes, I think you'll find that's utter bollocks. BT (British Telecom) are gradually removing them, and they're allowed to do that without consultation if there's another one within 1300 ft.

He doesn't travel in a phone booth; it's a police box.  And it's Doctor Who, not Dr. Who.

OK, so it's B.S.  The story did come from the Failing New York Times.
