Re: I NEED ANSWERS
Hi,
Can you talk on a cell phone and do other things at the same time? Here are a few resources:
http://www.itwire.com/content/view/18133/1154/
http://www.npr.org/templates/story/stor ... d=95702512
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/20 ... 113320.htm
These all say we should stick to doing one thing at a time.
Best Regards,
Barrett Tomlinson

Re: I NEED ANSWERS
I think the topic of how cell phone use affects our ability to perform other tasks could be a rather interesting experiment. Are you planning to perform such an investigation, or were you just looking for an answer?

Re: I NEED ANSWERS
Hi Matt,
I merged your new topic with your old one so that Experts can follow the progress of your project and your questions. Please add all new questions for this project into this topic.
The experts tend not to give direct answers to scientific questions that are the basis of a project. This is because the question is meant to be the basis of an experiment that will hopefully answer the question for you. If for some reason, this approach isn't helpful and you are not getting the help you need, please try adding some explanation of why the previous comments didn't fix your problem. Also, please make sure to answer any questions asked by the experts, because these are often important to our understanding of what you are trying to achieve, and if we don't understand what you are trying to do, then it is difficult to give good advice.
Thanks and good luck,
Chris
