yes I consider my cellphone as handy. As a matter of fact I am on a conference call on it at this moment. I have only had one for a year or so though and can well live without it.
But then I buy 300 min a month and have 3,000 rollover minutes....

I probably shouldn't admit this but I started outlining a novel about it earlier this week. Partially tongue-in-cheek, naturally, but not in essence.

LOL, I can totally picture it. Write it! Good luck. Name a character after me ok?

Umm, just in case you get any ideas, I meant a cool character. A funny, kind of crazy girl with perky breasts and cherry nipples.

300 mins a month? That wouldn't get me through a weekend.

I only use it as needed. I am not fond of talking on the phone just to be on the phone. While at home I use my land line.

LOL! Okay, you got it. If I actually use your name you get veto on the first draft.

Seriously, this kind of story -- doomsday fiction: "see, the scientists were right" kind of thing -- is a minor sub-genre within science fiction. It tends to be too topical to be lasting, literary fiction but it's popular and often pointed. David Brin's Earth is one of the best examples.

There's a woman who rides the same bus I do in the evenings, and sometimes in the morning as well, if I'm running late whom I think of as "Cellphone Woman." I have, quite literally, never seen her without a phone against her ear. Never once. I even saw her in Long's one day on a weekend and she was yakking on the phone then, too.

Now me, I dislike 'em. I'd give mine up in a trice to save the honeybees. My wireless router, on the other hand . . . .

I figure it is mostly the cellphone towers and not the cellphones per sie if they are effecting honeybees.

I'm not that bad. I always shut mine off in restaurants for instance.

I just got a wireless router. I love it.

Does anyone make an ethanol powered laptop ?

It is obvious many of the operators are powered by ethanol, but not the laptop.

Colorado had one a while back, but it was tested and found to be a virus on necropsy. I think they may be extrapolating suggestive danger from many different shortages from different periods and from different reasons.
