I think that's what he means by hating cell phone culture. Why not just walk next door, if the person IS next door? I think the biggest problem with "cell phone culture" is that people walk around in an isolated bubble instead of interacting with each other in person.
At the same time, it seems silly to deny yourself a useful piece of technology just because a lot of people exercise poor etiquette. If it makes sense, you can get one and use it privately like a land line. On the other hand if he's not making many calls, the land line may make more sense. -- \\ROB - a part of the SCB local network |
