 W> ..Imagine my surprise one year when I heard my phone ringing from
 W> my car & saw my office number on caller id.  It was a sad year...

 AA> Couldn't you have just ingnored it?

That's exactly what I did, just ended up turning the phone off for the rest 
of the trip.  Was just sad that I could no longer use that excuse.  Working 
in tech I prefer to take vacations that allow me to "unplug" and not having 
that compulsion to constantly check my phone is a big part of that.

 W> Seems that there aren't many spots now-a-days when you can camp at a

 AA> It seems to be a movement under the alure of safety.  Stuck in a
 AA> bog? Call 911.

Yeah, I guess I can see that.  It's nice to know that help is only a call 
away, even if *I* don't want to be reached... ;)
