That tech isn't really helping with the five people injured (one critically) cleaning up ice:

@wætherman: Katie Couric works at CBS now.

@evilfool: I have the Eddie Bauer knockoff version of that hat - not leather and faux fur - but I was still the envy of my coworkers when we were in the field in Montana and Texas this January.

Patton Oswalt approves.

Looking forward to some very inspired artwork. Welcome!

@matercepwina: Yes, you're right, if I'm reading my Kindle or listening to a podcast I'd totally miss the aircraft suddenly being upside down or bursting into flames (You used the word catastrophic).

@Withidread: Check your sarcasm meter. It seems to be malfunctioning.

@Fryee: But the potential for you to get laid has plummeted.

@Zordon: @bg-dez: The first taste is always free...

@David Oliver: Five people I know with Verizon are doing their preorders for the iPhone. Not a really extensive sample, but I think it will be more than a trickle.

Glad I'm grandfathered into unlimited data on my iPhone and iPad with AT&T.
