The Write Stuff

So the California legislature has now presumably rectified its mistake. In passing a law last year banning the use of cellphones while driving, it neglected to also ban the practice of flying along a freeway at 65-plus miles an hour while exchanging messages with others using a tiny screen and nine tiny keys. I'm imagining our lawmakers failed to image the possibility than anybody could be that stupid. As of yesterday the practice is against the law, which means the meatheads will now have to master the art of doing it surrepticiously.
