[Félix]

Twelve states allow the use of global positioning devices enforce restraining orders, but the path to widespread adoption has been bumpy.

I use GPS to track of all you. Bet you didn't know those Shebangs have microprocessors on them that adhere to your skin...

Ah, there's Tad, finally on my computer screen...he must have finally got the Shebangs...

Interesting that there is am app for the iPhone that shows where all users of that app are around you. If you were at a ballgame it would map out where everyone is. That could def be used to track you down. Everything you do (just about) on iPhone it prompts you: Do you want to use your present location?

I feel much safer now RA.

[Jackie "the Librarian"]

I'm usually at home or at work anyways, so anyone tracking me is going to get pretty bored.

RA and I have alrady discussed that fact offline.

Yes, Larry and I were wondering that, Jackie. We thought perhaps your microprocessors were broken.

Maybe the cat hair has clogged the ports...
