I believe that New England Telephone (a NYNEX company) provides phone
service for the poor (regardless of age, all you have to do is show
that you can't afford to pay) at a very basic level. You have to pay
for your phone calls (message units), but the telephone, and the line
are free.

I feel that this is reasonable and am happy to be contributing.
