I've been on PT where passengers in close proximity have systematically worked their way through their entire phone book to sate their desperate need for company. How sad! Most inexplicable to me are those conversations held on the way home with someone at that very place waiting for the caller to arrive. What's so life shattering that it cuoldn't wait until they get there? Nothing apparently. The only reason why people use mobiles for such frippery is that the calls are so cheap. And then the phone companies wonder why they don't make a profit. Absurd. -- Richard J. (to e-mail me, swap uk and yon in address) |
