    That's very good--I don't live in CA but I have gotten spammed a couple of times on a cell phone.

    Keep at it!

  6. Stephen King, author, dead at 54 by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I just heard some sad news on talk radio - Horror/Sci Fi writer Stephen King was found dead in his Maine home this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his work, there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly an American icon.

      He was 55. Have some respect for the dead by getting his age correct.

    You submitted a business plan in the wrong format!

    It should have been:

    1. Register cell phones in California
    2. ?????
    3. Profit!
    4. Get sued for patent infringement
