:lol: I assume from your reply that you don't see a problem with distracted driving (texting, talking, etc). Distracted driving has shown to be extremely dangerous as evidenced by a number of YT'ers who post here. Extrapolate those experiences to the general population and we've got a real problem. Distracted driving isn't caused JUST by cell-phone use. A neighbor's daughter rear-ended someone years ago because she WAS fiddling with the radio. (See? Your dad was right! :D )
My observation was mostly about how many people are on cell-phones constantly (not just in their cars) without any concern about their surroundings or that they are being rude.
Last night while working in the garage, I heard a voice and looked up to see a guy jogging by, talking to someone (cellphone strapped to his arm). He was huffing and puffing and I can't imagine how this sounded to the person on the other end of the conversation. Then, not 5 minutes later, 2 women walk past together. It's not unusual to see this in our neighborhood and hear them chatting to each other as they walk. But this time I hear BOTH of them talking at the same time. Sure enough, they're BOTH on their cellphones having separate conversations, seeming oblivious to their walking partner.
I am NOT anti-cellphone. I have an iPhone 6 for work, have had them since they first came out in the early 80's when they were installed in your car. They can be very useful. But I have never felt compelled to be on them every waking minute of the day.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
