Do Cell Phones Make Us Stupid?

Noodleroni writes "I came across this article on MSNBC that discusses why it seems cell phone users are so stupid sometimes. A very interesting read." Absolutely no scientific basis in this - 'cept for the DoCoMo study, but it still seems true.

    Slashdot moderators Must use cell phones 24/7. How else to explain how a lame article like this makes it onto slash dot when my insightful and inciteful suggestions go rejected. sigh. what's the trick to getting a submission accepted?

    I don't know why people get all huffy when someone suggests that women might be different from men. There are clear biological differences, adaptations for certain roles. Certain definitions of intelligence clearly favor men.
    I can't believe you seriously espouse this sloppy, bigoted thinking. To think that people are "adapted" for certain roles is similiar to the days when "englightened" thinkers were certain that African-Americans were incapiable of intelligence. Please don't make the mistake of calling yourself intelligent in the future, okay?
