Texting while driving is even more dangerous than talking on the phone. The most dangerous part of talking on the phone is typing in the number! Fortunately they've both been banned in these parts. Texting/talking while driving is probably responsible for more deaths than all illegal drugs combined on a yearly basis.

Good point. txt is basically a replacement for clumsy voicemail. Sometimes I can't even figure out how to get my voicemail when I want to.
