Many's the time I've had someone walking towards me (mostly in stores)
while looking intently down at her/his "hand-held device". No one else
exists as s/he peers, texts or scrolls away. For Pete's sake...I'm already
walking so far to the right [hmm] that my hip's almost part of an end-cap
feature...and the O/C ambulating tekkie is about to smack into me! THAT'S
when I sharply say, "Look OUT!" S/he dang nearly jumps in the air and
drops the iWhatever-It-Is...as I smile and continue walking.
