My first thought was why would they do the LAST landing site, and then realized that Schmitt and Evans are likelier younger and cheaper to engage for the promotions than Aldrin and the earlier astronauts.

Pretty soon, people won’t know what a ‘payphone’ is.
Phone booths are already extinct...............

I was watching an early Law & Order episode where Cragen stops to use a phone booth.

Funny how time flies.

Wow, an even better way to lose money than flushing it down the toilet! Where do I sign up??

Look at the history of the Chunnel and the original investors.

They were selling old phone booths at the flea market here, recently. No phone, just booth.

Why anyone would buy one I don’t know.............
