Now if <br> you're one of these who are trying to write, speak and smoke without the hands <br> free, then you're a real public danger. And I do see some of these on the road. <br> There is talk about prohibiting cell phone conversations here in Québec. It's <br> not a law yet, but I'll bet it's not far.<br> <br> I thought that when I'd be grown up I'd be free... I guess the government here <br> is trying a little too hard to play mom...<br> <br> Marcel Carey, RPT<br> Sherbrooke, QC<br> ________________________________<br> > Date: Tue, 18 Dec 2007 10:51:44 -0600<br> > From: <a href="mailto:IFixPianos@yahoo.com">IFixPianos@yahoo.com</a><br> > To: <a href="mailto:pmc033@earthlink.net">pmc033@earthlink.net</a>; <a href="mailto:pianotech@ptg.org">pianotech@ptg.org</a><br> > Subject: Re: a ltitle help/off topic<br> > <br> > <br> > <br> > On Dec 18, 2007 8:51 AM, Paul McCloud> wrote:<br> > Actually, there are studies that show that using a cell phone while driving is <br> actually like driving under the influence of alcohol.
