From the Detroit News.  Earth to Cell Headset Users: You’re Not That Important. 

…what worries me most is not the insensitivity of some people who wear the headsets to those around them. But this: the more high-tech we get with cell phones, the more that means that, no matter where I am, or what I may be doing, anybody can ring me up at any time of their choosing.

I hate knowing that. I hate being that accessible. To anybody. Even to my kids. No, especially my kids.

Ultra-connected. Always available.
