I see the occasional random pay phone but I never see phone booths anymore. I would like to try and get my son to use a pay phone to make a call. He is seventeen but I bet he would struggle making that call. He would not know what a dial tone is.


Only one I know of is at the Exxon near Highway 49 and Highway 90.

What's the original meaning of this one. It's very close to being extinct. I'll bet most young people haven't heard it.

I thought white gas was the drippings from some tank batteries we would use at the hunting camp?

I don't know about all that - but Coleman fuel is a type of white gas. It's 'almost' gasoline, but no additives and lower octane.
