[BC] (OT) Cell phone Text messaging

[Mike McCarthy]

I resisted giving my cell phone # out for as long as I could possibly 
delay.  The reason, I have a pager. If you need to find me...use it.  There 
are MANY times where a cell phone ringing is the last thing you want at 
that moment.

Text messaging, that's what a two-way pager is for...and is a WHOLE lot 
cheaper...
