    Man, those were interesting times. It’s funny, elsewhere in these comments I remarked about a question people didn’t ask back in the day. “Where are you?” was hardly ever asked because of landlines.

    Your response reminded me of an inverse question, one that’s rarely asked nowadays.

    “Where am I?”

      I think “Where are you” was perfectly acceptable when we had landlines. It was before phones that that was almost never asked.
