Tami Damrow says, I find it very irritating when I cannot help eavesdropping. The universal annoyance over this issue is clear. There is also a lot of concern about using cell phones while driving. Kristi Ramirez believes that cell phones are a distraction and a danger on the road. So do I, Heidi.
Email messages are less intrusive than cell phone calls and elicit less venom.
