some positive aspects of cell-phone use at dinner are:

  • less spitting on other people's food while chewing; silent chewing is more sanitary (#1425488);
  • sentient beings with intentions gather together in the same room - if only people were searching/scrolling thru internet with great intentions...

proposed solution: make a faraday cage (aluminum can for paint will do) and require that everyone puts the mobile devices in there, in the other room, or in airplane mode for the duration of the meal...

just like leaving dirty shoes in the foyer is customary, leaving spyware-addictware at the entrance to ur temple shud be considered;

people can be influenced, behavior can be modified, u just need to come up with a good story!

also think about eating outside in the sunlight, with candles burning, or under incandescent non-toxic lights; modern cheap lightbulbs help cause diabetes & other crap;

Since I can't influence or control the decisions of other adults, I've chosen not to eat at the same table. I've already tried; I've spoken up, given my point of view, but I've been ignored.

find a more aware table, or eat outside in silence under the sunrays; even better if u can find chirping birds; )))


opt out of the matrix;
