I know I don't spend much time "in the city" but I'm
sure that there are thousands of people seeming to
carry on conversations when there is no one there to
respond in kind...Whether it's homeless people
muttering to themselves (we all know though, that they
are actually talking telepathically with another
muttering homeless person in another city...) or
cellular phone drones talking into their
"pregnant-ear-bud" hands free devices or attempting to
talk into those micro-mineature phones...Yet, the only
dirty looks they get is from those that they
disturb...So, how cool would it be to look like you're
talking to yourself and in reality you are awash with
some personalized, cool, individual listening
entertainment? You'ld be able to give those cell phone
drones an evil look back!
