Wait, did you guys read that article about the phones and the bees? It's not saying "it's not the cell phones" it's just saying 'we don't know if it's the cell phones, we didn't study it'. So yeah, the press exaggerated that story, but you're misrepresenting it as well.

I thought cell phones were killing the bees. That hysteria lasted all of one news cycle. When we're all starving at least we'll have our concert tickets.

I thought Segways were supposed to be riden in the street, not on the sidewalk. WTF?

The fun part about this is that showgoers will actually *save* money this way; service charges are $1 per order and up to $1.50 per ticket less. Always striving to please those Jetsons, we are.

I can't hear you

You were being sarcastic right? When can I pay my parking tickets via the RFID chip in my skull? or procure a prostitute with my ipod? We NEED these modern conveniences.
