Hi all,

So I was going through my old emails and I stumbled across a few that dealt
with what do we call what we do..and Rich's Wikipedia challenge:

As well as Howard R.'s response:

So if you do a search on Wikipedia right now for mobile phone or cell phone
and also Mobile Communication Studies (a name that the list last year
thought to try on -- but we can change it) you will see what I started...

Cell phone dispute tied to choking

LEOMINSTER- A city man is charged with attempted murder for allegedly
choking his mother Tuesday during a disagreement over
her cell phone, according to Leominster District Court records.

...Nidia Baez, 47, who also lives at the Third Street address, told police
Mr. Padilla-Baez had programmed several of his
friends' telephone numbers into her cell phone, records stated.
Ms. Baez decided later that it was her cell phone and she did not want all
of these numbers in the phone, so she deleted
them, records stated.

When Mr. Padilla-Baez came home Tuesday after being away for several days
and learned that his friends' numbers had been deleted,he began screaming at
his mother, she told police.
Mr. Padilla-Baez then allegedly pushed Ms. Baez to the ground, grabbed her
throat with his hands and began strangling her. A police officer later saw a
slight redness on Ms. Baez's neck, records said.
