Hi Carl,
CO>I understand where you are coming from on this one, however, if you had
CO>to give the unit up, you could live without it. It would not be as nice
CO>and the companies (phone) would like to have us think it isn't a luxury.
CO>The truth is, the cell phone is a luxury. I agree we are better off with
CO>a phone than without one.
Sure, I lived without it for most of my life, but I know that quite a
number of times in recent years the cellphone has really saved my bacon.
My car, my watch, my house they are all things I could live without and
could be deemed to be luxuries. You could literally call anything which
is not directly related to the sustenance of life as being a luxury, but
in most modern Western societies, all these things are considered
essential to conducting a normal lifestyle.
We can all do without things, but why should we if we can afford to have
em?
Cheers - Ziggy
