I can't agree with you more. Everybody can see this was caused by Flying Under the Influence, which kills more drunken birds than Dick Cheney with a shotgun. Yes, I say FUI. Their flying licenses ought to be suspended.
So, if I hit you in the eye with baseball bat, it's your fault for complaining? I like that argument, Let's empirically test its validity.
I see that you, too seem to subscribe to the philosophy that being self-entitled, you have the right to do anything you wish in public.
Unfortunately, I don't have an attention disorder but like many people, react to annoying flashing lights in my forward field of view that I cannot physically block out. Sitting in the front row is not always an option, moving is not always practical. No, the problem is not with me but the multitude of self-centered adolescents in university, the same as always but now empowered with flashy toys.
And civility includes keeping your nose out of other people's business and paying attention to your own. The person sitting behind you, or next to you, using a laptop is not interfering with your ability to participate in the lecture. The only reason there is a problem is because you cannot focus, which is your problem, not theirs.
I am pleased to see you fit the following rather well:
"Research, led by Sara H. Konrath of the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor and published online in August in Personality and Social Psychology Review, found that college students' self-reported empathy has declined since 1980, with an especially steep drop in the past 10 years. To make matters worse, during this same period students' self-reported narcissism has reached new heights, according to research by Jean M. Twenge, a psychologist at San Diego State University."
How nice for you. Well, I hope Mommy gives you a gold star for multitasking. I bet you comprehended at least 80% of what's going on, too, unlike those of us who have 'that much trouble paying attention'. Have you ever taken any courses in not being a self-satisfied douchebag? I suspect you paid lots of attention in them, too.
I am, frankly, very distracted when someone puts an illuminated screen in my field of view and it contains attention-pulling flashing or flickering graphics. In an era of annoying Flash on so many websites, all it takes is one rude bastard in front of me to cause me to have to exert energy ignoring the distraction.
I've also been stuck with soft-speaking lecturers whose voice has been partly obscured by a forest of clicks around me.
Anyone claiming 'tough, get used to it' is a mannerless fool like the kind who shouts on cellphones next to you. Students once got along perfectly well quietly taking notes on paper long before the present self-indulgent generation of laptop users. If people don't care about the effect of what they do on their neighbors, it shows a flaw in them, not the protester. I object to the selfish attitude of 'I'm the consumer paying for this, I can do what I want (without regard for others around me)'. And it's significant disrespect for the professor when people fail to pay reasonable attention to him.
I walk away from anyone who's rude enough to stop abruptly and take a phone call in the middle of my sentence, because they're being selfish and ill-mannered. Civility belongs in the classroom, too.

Tandberg was bought by Cisco for their video conferencing and telecommunications products, and sets the policy. So this is not done in any innocent way.
The amygdala also plays a critical role in emotions. It is effectively an interrupt prioritizer for not just fear but other emotions. It may be responsible for a person being able to stop smelling the pretty flowers when a tiger looms, and other cases where one must choose which current goal to pursue. If you consider emotions as metrics of the current success or failure level of key types of goals, and the amygdala as the analytic device for those metrics, you can see how the brain chooses which goals under pursuit require the most attention.
If the research came up with a way to dampen the fear input, it could have positive and negative consequences. Reducing fear might help people who get anxiety attacks. On the other hand, a 'Warrior' pill that removes fear might also make soldiers reckless and take too many risks. And as Batman's Scarecrow character has, development of a 'fear gas' that triggered the fear input would be interesting.
That was my first thought too, and was why I checked carefully. But I pushed the recruiter to verify with the company and I pointed out such a mistake would prevent ANY candidate who could satisfy needs from being found. I was told the manager who'd specified the needs knew what he needed, and basically, who was I to question him. Overall the large list of requirements was kind of bizarre and I felt really was being used to eliminate all candidates in favor of one they wanted but couldn't until they'ed blocked all others.
Inflated or for that matter deliberately impossible requirements. I've seen job ads that were packed with enough requirements that no one was likely to fulfill them, including one that demanded "experienced with FrameMaker 7.7". Adobe never issued a 7.7, they went from version 7.2 to 8. I called the shop to ask them about this.The recruiter insisted that 7.7 was absolutely necessary and mandatory and the client used it and specified it. Clearly this was a phony screening excuse in operation. I've also seen ads requiring 6 or 7 years of experience with Web technologies that have existed for only 2 years. All too often see such ads from Indian-run agencies so I expect there's a hidden agenda to bar all but the desired pre-selected candidates.
Few people remember when the iPhone serial port was used to hack into a flying saucer and inject a virus into an alien space fleet, saving the Earth. And the President himself led the attack against the mothership. It seems like only yesterday, before these stupid people locked me up in here.
Ah, but that won't necessarily solve it. One day I went out to my 1980 Volvo (which has 250,000 miles on it and runs great) and on startup the oil light was on. I popped the hood to check the oil. Full and no problem there. Then I looked down at the oil sensor area. ALL the insulation starting at the sensor end had been eaten off for about a foot and the wires were frayed. The wiring was shorting to the engine. I did a fix with electrical tape for the nonce. But then later that week I had more problems on other wires and these too traced back to eaten insulation, and even the electrical tape had been gnawed. In the end, it was rats. I had to sprinkle poison around and lay traps to stop them. They're not somebody's harmless little pets, and our pioneer ancestors would have thought for maybe 2 seconds before popping a.22 between their eyes.

I tried Tyson Farm-Fresh Cricket Thighs for Thanksgiving, and frankly, they don't compare to turkey. Also, the wishbones are way too small.
You could be tried for murder if you order out for 10 garlic pizzas, you know.

Bud, you're a complete self-centered asshat. Sucks to be you.

I respect your right to assert your opinion. However, that's DR. Inconsiderate Prick, if you please.

What would happen if every known pilot were on the no-fly list?
I don't have a focusing disability. I have a douchebag allergy. You're making me itch.

I am most interested in flying RC planes as a hobby. Please send details, including maximum payload.

And the results of this study have absolutely no relevance to Congress and the Senate. None! I say none!
