In PLA007, we published a phone directory of interesting telephone numbers to call that were guaranteed to pass the time on a boring day. After awhile, many of these numbers were outdated and disconnected so several updates of this issue were released. In the summer of 1995, PLA decided to begin releasing quarterly phone directories, which would be updated as much as possible.

We haven't exactly kept up with the quarterly plan, but today there are six phone directories, each one bigger than the previous. These directories are perfect to print up and take on beige boxing expeditions or just to flip through and call random numbers for the sheer hell of it. You'll find pay phones around the world, interesting voice mail boxes and answering machines, phone company newslines and more Roys than you can shake a stick at.

Where are the directories, you ask? We stopped publishing it years ago. For awhile linear from UPL took over the publication of the directory. But he stopped when he stopped publishing UPL. I used to keep the archive of the old phone directories on this page. But after a certain few individuals listed in the directories started raising hell about being harassed, I decided to just take them down. I hope somebody else will publish a similar phone directory someday and I can link to it.

05/04/05 - poops from bay area california: here is a weird number to call- (510)522-2632 If you call it in the middle of the day you can here peoplegetting on and off an elevator. Since when do elevators have public phones? When I called it a few times a man yells "your callen an elevator lady!". The even weirder thing is that the city I live in has maybe 2 elevators in it. One in the jail (I think and one in the hopsitol) and it sounds like the elevator is outside or something.
