it seems everyone who posted so far kind of missed the point... the findings show that you have to either be up or down to be creative, which i've noticed and have to deal with every day as a composer. feeling so so is not the time to work on music. i make my best stuff out of a surge of happiness or the bottom of depression.
everyone i know with a blackberry or similar phone with a qwerty keyboard is totally addicted to it.
i've had phone conversations where i could hear someone clicking buttons, sending texts while talking to me.
i have to wait on people at my register at work, who, every single day, will be on their phone. every time i see them, every day.
i don't think a health warning would keep anyone from using it, but it's not that bad of an idea.
i don't even have a cellphone. it's pretty easy to live without one, believe it or not.
