I have a cell phone only because my SO occasionally needs one when she's on call and she refuses to get one herself. We use it only for outgoing calls for the most part and don't give out the number except in rare cases. I think we average perhaps one incoming call per year. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
