Our Common Offense: Living While Distracted
"Good intentions and police action may be no match for the encroachments of gadgetry and wirelessness. Life is and always has been full of distractions, yes; it may be that life itself is a distraction--from death. But our attention flits and wanders as never before. The consequences, outside the cockpit and the driver's seat, are as yet unclear." The New Yorker 11/09/09
