You mean you don't use a wind up watch?!

I note there are various ways people justify not turning their mobiles/blackberries off. I fear that being forced to turn their phones off - by someone who has power over them - is found to be emasculating by all too many people. I mean, turning your phone/blackberry completely off for 10 minutes every so often isn't really such a big deal that people would come up with all kinds of justifications to leave it on .... wouldn't they?
