Faldage Carpal Tunnel Registered: 12/01/00 Posts: 13653	I had a banner ad today that made me wonder what my ten year younger self would have thought it referred to. So everybody put your heads back into the early '90s: Hands Free Cellular Car Kits

Zed Pooh-Bah Registered: 08/27/02 Posts: 2154 Loc: British Columbia, Canada	A hands free car - very Jetsonian. But where does the cellular part fit in?? I shocked a teen the other day by saying that I went to school before cell phones, before e-mail and before the PC. (personal computer or politically correct, take your choice.) Amazing what we have learned to take for granted in so short a time.

musick Carpal Tunnel Registered: 12/24/00 Posts: 2658 Loc: Chicago	But where does the cellular part fit in?? It must be an electric car! (WOW! Doesn't that *sound futuristic? e.g.)
