"What is the converse
of authority? Mr. Rico."
He had picked one I could answer. "Responsibility, sir."
"Applause. Both for practical reasons and for mathematically verifiable
moral reasons, authority and responsibility must be equal -- else a
balancing takes place as surely as current `flows between points of unequal
potential." - Robert A. Heinlein - Starship Troopers (the book, not the sicko movie by that Eurotrash Verhoven, 'Starshit Troupers')

Didn't this used to be called "airplane mode"?

So now we're surrendering authority over our lives to telephones? seriously?
