Yep, and if you cause an accident because you spill hot coffee on your legs while driving, you get charged with reckless driving. No doubt the same will happen if you hit someone while chatting on the phone. A few such convictions, and the insurance rates for cars with phones in them will go up. Then only the people who can really pay for it will have car phones. Ah, the beauty of our free for all capitalistic system! (Of course in a free for none communistic system car phones aren't be a problem, because there are no cars.) -------------------------------------------- Gerard Stafleu (519) 661-2151 Ext. 6043 Internet: gerard@uwovax.uwo.ca BITNET: gerard@uwovax
