What's it like in other parts of the world? Does "everyone" on club
rides bring a phone? Do people answer calls while riding in a group?
I am in Canada and proud to be "the last person on earth without a cell
phone".
Why?
Why I don't have a cell? Or why I'm proud of the fact?
Of the former: I _like_ not being reachable by phone. Of the latter: I find
the pervasiveness of cell phones tedious and therefore revel in being a
rebel.

Do you have a telephone at home?
Yes.
I'm guessing you have a computer
at home,
Yes. In fact if I could find a notebook computer of exceptional ruggedness
at a reasonable price I would seriously consider taking one along on rides.
or did you post your note by pigeon?
No.
I guess we all have one
thing from this high-speed-communication-information age we live in we
may dislike, mine's voicemail, but I like text messages, go figure.
Bingo. I dislike test messaging as well as voicemail. The latter the variety
of corporate maze voicemails from hell. Simple answering machines are all
right and given telemarketing a useful screening tool.
