[4eyes] Lab phones

[Jonathan Ventura]

I would also like to join the "Save the FogLab Phone" campaign.  I use it to
easily call Tobias, the bookstore for ordering, and staff on campus (e.g.
for coordinating GSWC this year).  I also used it when communicating with
industry contacts for GSWC.  Especially since cell phones don't work in the
building, I think the landline phone is really useful to have.

The only use I have for the phone in the trailer is that I can call it from
the FogLab and see who is in the trailer in case I need something done over
there.
