(Even the _ability_ to block a pay phone, qua pay phone, must imply that pay phones send out some kind of signal announcing themselves as pay phones, which I had not heard of before. I assumed a pay phone was Just Another Phone Number.)
Caller ID identifies most pay phones as "PAY PHONE".
Many years ago the phone company tried to assign pay phones phone numbers of the form xxx-9xxx. They no lobger do in area codes/exchanged where the numbers are very scarce. --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps
