10. I don't know why people hate them so much
I think communication is good. I remember my father hated stepping into the now. We didn't have cable, we were one of the last people to get a microwave, it took forever to get anything with a remote control because "the old one is good enough". I know these weren't life threatening things not to have, but he was like a lot of people today... refuse to believe that things change.
I know cells can be a nuisance, but people can be just as bad without a cell phone. I don't understand why people hate seeing people talking on their cell phones. OK, the movie theater, church, a funeral...that might get irritating, but in a restaurant where the kids are screaming and people are yelling across the table to each other, what's wrong with someone on the phone?
I think it's time people get into 2005 and get ready for a lot of new changes to come..things WILL change and as long as people don't want to accept change, they will get pissed off.
