    I moved my land line to VOIP in ~2010. Got rid of it altogether when my MIL died in 2017

    Thank you for your attention to this matter.

      Does VOIP qualify as a landline?

        No it’s no longer using POTS and we could remove all the telephone cable in the house and cancel the service.

          Yeah, I get that, but it's not really wireless (unless you have wireless internet).

          I assumed the graph used wireless and "cellular" as the same thing.

                                        And Richie Ashburn was an original met, meaning he was on the 1962 expansion franchise roster. Batted .306 and was the only met in the all star game. That year the Mets were 40-120.
