K-dog, I quite agree about the cell phone bubbleheads. But this is just a matter of common courtesy, to avoid speaking too loudly or intrusively or in inappropriate circumstances. I prefer myself to read a book or magazine in such cases. But non-yuppies are often annoyed at yuppies using cell phones even for legitimate reasons. Though there are cell phone bubbleheads, there are also many “busy people whose time is at a premium” who use cell phones to make calls they would otherwise have to make while shackled to a landline, or not be able to make at all.
