(50,566 posts)(covering both individual numbers and "yellow pages" for businesses). They are not necessarily "The Yellow Pages" though -- I get a few different directories. So, most of them wind up in recycling. Not sure why these things are still so prevalent. You'd think by now it would be down to just one directory company, if that.

Actually this has inspired me to start a poll.
