LOL we’re confused and disoriented. The government will be along to take us to a happy sleepy place soon enough.

My real problem is that I can't get one that fits my ear trumpet.

You whippersnapper. ;-)

Haven't posted yet, but I concur with many, and I'm 42.

Been in IT professionally for 20 years.

You might find this hard to believe, but after a few decades of the latest gadget, it gets boring. You realize what's important, and out gadgeting your buds ain't it. Being tethered to the office aint it either.

Cell phones are tools. Too many people use them as toys.

Maybe you're not there yet.

I'm on the tenth or twelfth cell phone I can remember, but I've probably owned more that I've forgotten about, had dozens of pagers before that, been on the Internet since it was text-based, and have managed generations of email, file and web servers.

I'd rather spend time uninterupted with my wife than be connected to the rest of the world.

No kidding. I was reading through the comments wondering if there's a "Hey you kids, get off my lawn!" ping list.

I am somewhere significantly younger than that. Cells have their uses, but crap people need to get a life and return to actual face to face conversations. I love computers and use some top of the line CAD software, I am no luddite.
