Comment Re:Probably saved more lives with jamming (Score 1) 427

It has been years since I read it, and I have no link, but ISTR that the brain does some additional processing when speaking to someone who is not physically present. The visual cortex attempts to imagine the person you are talking to (even if subconsiously), which takes some processing power from scanning and processing driving conditions.

Comment Nothing to do with conservatism (Score 1) 10

This has nothing to do with conservatism, and everything to do with the modern condition. I have seen this sort of behavior by people of all stripes and backgrounds.

By far, the worst offenders are those who post YouTube videos. Sorry, I've been able to read for decades. I can read and process faster than you can read a script. Or even worse, faster than you can adlib. Save the videos for demonstrations of how to do actual, physical things.
