For all of you who go around talking into those little Star-Trek-style communicators, an interesting link:

For $110, anyone can buy the record of your outgoing calls.


For double that, they can get your incoming calls, as well.

Feel safe now?


I knew there'd be more reasons not to have a cell phone. Thank the gods I never fell for that "convenience" crap. You want to get in touch with me? You'll have to have a little patience.

I don't say anything on the phone that people can't overhear, so I guess that part doesn't matter to me. Given I spend at least 3-4 hours a day in transit and absolutely have to be reachable AND able to reach other people if I'm connecting for rides or have urgent projects, there really isn't any choice.

I talk on the phone about 10 minutes a week, and that's usually to ask if something is open/available or to report where I am or will be, which is probably why this isn't an issue for me.
