accessible, resource in their own neighborhoods: The local user 
group. (Free registration to this site required.)

THE MISSING LINK | Cube mates cranky over cell phone calls 

Apparently anti-cell phone sentiments are not limited to movie 
theaters. A new worker survey is rather stinging when it comes to 
the ringing. Cell phone rings are now cubicle conquerors, having 
topped the workplace nuisance list. Bad breath, BO, and empty 
toilet paper rolls in the bathroom were left in the wireless dust. 
To beat those time-honored workplace peeves shows just how far the 
cell phone has come. The most annoying of the annoying, according 
to the survey, are those cutesy themed rings that make Roseanne's 
version of "The Star Spangled Banner" sound like Celine Dion.
