Sure it was, unless you and that bloke living five miles away still have land lines. Your post was a justification of using technology as it develops. ;-D

Of course we go with the available technology; however, I think a great deal of it is merely gadget fad. When out to dinner with my family I see everyone sitting around the other tables using their phones. What is the point of going out to enjoy a meal if just to sit there engaging distant people in conversation? They could just go high tech, order on line, have the food delivered, and then eat in their own rooms where they won't getting interrupted while using their precious life-giving link.

I think tech is overused, destroying the quality of experiencing the here and now.

My post had nothing to do about cellphones. If you want to argue that, please repost it an explain how you misunderstood my post.

Sure it was, unless you and that bloke living five miles away still have land lines.

I read that as:

Sure it was, unless you and that bloke living five miles away still have land mines.

*sigh*
