Agree ... except I don't think you are being blunt enough
; I'm sure you can do better.
I don't own one ... have no need. (Altho' I do admire the technologhy). Folks over here are starting to notice the anti-social aspects of social networking. There is a new gambling game some are playing. It goes something like this: say four people go out to dinner, or for drinks. They place their phones in a pile on the table, and the first one to pick up a phone to check messages, or to answer a call or a text has to pay the tab. Answering the damn things, or checking them has become such second nature for many, that someone usually gets caught out and stuck with the bill.
A friend told me once that I should have a phone in case of an emergency. I don't even buy into that argument. After all most of us on here have spent most of our lives successfully dealing with emergencies withhout cell phones.
