And I certainly respect/understand those who don't use a phone alot and just want it for emergencies or relaly, really important communications.

I just look at things differently, somewhat to due with my line of work, since I want people to be able to get ahold of me to let me know whats going on.

LOTS of people have my number but very few use it... but they know they can call me anytime if they need/want to.

you'd just loose it, let the batteries go dead, drop it in the water, leave it at the Moose or Elks..... and everyone would have to hear about it

As long as you don't call them because you've locked yourself "in the car"!
