Good day everyone!  I'm Jeff N Marquis co-author of Untapped Wealth Discovered and after a most enjoyable vacation I'm back at my desk.
I'd like to start off by bringing your attention to a recent cell phone study that I came across in an online magazine.  This study focuses on the use of cell phones and points to certain concerns and drawbacks for cell phone users.  For one thing it discusses the hazards of using cell phones and discusses the link between using cell phones and certain diseases.  I'd like to focus a bit on the dangers of driving while talking on cell phones because like others it concerns me greatly that too many of us talk on our cells while driving and in all honesty can we really concentrate sufficiently on our driving while talking to others?
A few weeks ago I heard about one lady who got herself into big hot water because while driving she was busy chatting on her cell and she got into a horrible accident.  She failed to see a scaffolding jutting out on a sidewalk and she crashed into it causing the worker on the scaffolding to fall 20 feet and the entire scaffolding fell into the road.  What's most disconcerting about this is that she never even realized that she had hit the scaffolding and she only realized that something was wrong when she noticed some cars in her rare view mirror trying to catch her attention.  Luckily for the worker he was not seriously injured but what if he had been killed?
There have been several incidents over the past few years in America of persons driving and talking on their cells getting into serious accidents and there seems to be a growing demand for some type of legislation in our country to curb the high level of talking on cells and driving at the same time.  It is my hope that this type of legislation comes much sooner rather than later because if it does not we are going to be faced with more and more accidents most of them being serious and some day soon the law suits are going to start coming fast and hard. For I can tell you that if I were ever faced with an injury caused by a talking cell phone driver I would not hesitate to launch a law suit.  I just don't understand how any logical thinking person could tell me that they are able to concentrate on their driving while talking to a person on their cell.  Impossible!  How could you give your undivided attention to the road and at the same time have a sensible conversation with your party on the phone?
