Addicts are addicts, no matter that their fix is, and they do not respond to reason.Be it as it may, watching those people cross the streets with their eyes riveted to the device while holding their treasure with both hands is so ridiculous that any sense of lament for society degradation is being overpowered by sheer laughter of disbelief at their stupidity.
You know I am usually against the regulations... but in this case I am applauding the Delaware's new anti-handheld law. One idiot young female nearly collided with my car while texting - I am sure she was "communicating" with a minister at the very least... and a few minutes of delay would have great consequences.
