Stop Telstra White Pages and Yellow Pages phone book deliveries

OK so you’ve just got dumped with new phone books that are going to go straight into the recycling.

What a waste.

Surely there has to be a way to stop them?

Well, there is, but Telstra should plaster it all over their websites and their online directory search.

Courtesy of Buy Organic, I found this information buried on the Sensis site.

Print Directory Opt-out

You can choose not to receive specific Sensis directory print products by calling 1800 810 211, or emailing bookdelivery@sensis.com.au

Tell all your friends. Now.

(Yes, I know the delivery process employs manual labourers but I thought that the whole point of this economic reshuffle is the refocussing our economy on things we actually need and want . . . )

(Yes, I also know that the phone books are handy if Teh Internets is down but I’ll take a punt on that)

Underground Resistance – Riot
Outlander – Vamp
A Hippie, A Homeboy and a Funki Dredd – Total Confusion (Confusion mix)

Mental Cube – Q
Acid Junkies – Sector 9
Edge – Culminatr

What? Another blog?

Yes folks, I’ve decided that now with the work blog becoming more serious and being read by, well, a lot of people, and the Cyclic Defrost blog becoming more strictly a CMS for the magazine that I need another new space for less structured public thoughts and the like
