I can't be arsed getting into the mobile phone arguments again (don't let me stop you if you want to go over it again) However, I post this because of the little footnote about speed cameras. Yet another example of how if you keep spouting the same sh*te for long enough it just gets accepted as fact.

Gets right on my tits.

Dr Michael Goodman, a consultant gastroenterologist in Bury, Greater Manchester, told BBC News Online: "We have the evidence of the dangers.

"I think it should be illegal. Full stop."

Any Doctors on here tell me what a Gastroenterologist does, and whether this qualifies him to speak on the subject matter? I thought they just dealt with tummy upsets..!

"One imagines that the nature of the telephone conversation, such as bad news, conflict, or expressions of anger or rage can also be distracting."

One imagines that you are spouting BS and clutching at straws to boot. Silly arse.
