I was snaking a 240 volt line up through the attic when I found them. Judging by the dust I'm probably the first person up there in a few years. The phone lines have been upgraded and rewired with all this older stuff disconnected and just left behind and forgotten about.

With how things usually go in such cases, when you disconnect them half the city phone lines will go down.

Thankfully that would just knock out a few peoples lines around here. (The store is in a little village of around 400 people at best.)
