I have my grandmother’s old address book that she started using in the 60’s, and our neighbor’s number is in there as “Fairview 5-####”. I checked my cell phone, and it’s the same number I have for her, except I have the whole 10 digits. Hasn’t changed in 60 years, through all the phone number changes and updates.

i love that! i've had the same cell number for 20 years, and i guess that will probably become more common now that numbers are portable, but it's just not the same thing.
