   Colleague in Japan: "Almost every household here has a fax, because if you have kids in school, the main line of communication from the school is the fax."

      Here, some government agencies still require documents to be sent by fax, so we visit Kinko's (now Fedex Office) or the UPS Store and pay them to send.
      
      Back when the house had a landline, there was a fax machine, but there was so much spam that we disconnected it. Yes, there are (or were) companies that would randomly dial numbers and try to fax pages of advertising.
