4. I've never had a call long enough to become that absorbed....
because "the network with the fewest dropped calls" drops me every 4 minutes or so...

They'll start charging me for a new feature... "train-avoidance-system: $39.99 (not available with "friends and family package)"

10. Creepy to think that a call you are on was dropped because the person on the
other line's phone was just obliterated by a commuter train. :scared:

11. It was a 16 year old. Poor kid.
Not an age known for respecting one's own mortality.
