I wonder how many of you have ever heard a busy signal. It could get frustrating as hell.
My grandparents still do not have call waiting.

I think that's cool, stout.
I remember the days before cell phones. When I was in trial in the late 80s/early 90s my secretary just told people I would be unavailable until after hours or until trial was over.
Now, I come out of the courthouse and there are text messages/voice mails/emails. There is no hiding out anymore. It's not good to be available 24/7. I miss the days of being able to be unavailable. But, damn, it's pretty impressive to be able to carry around a device that can answer most questions I have or contact anyone I know.
