Supposedly ATT will sponsor this video in 44,000 schools this year. It is a very good documentary / public service announcement. I heard Werner Herzog on NPR the other day and his words were very thought provoking:
“The real essential thing is we have to see what is happening — and it’s not just an accident, not just the mechanics of an accident. It’s a new form of culture coming at us and it’s coming with great vehemence. …
“You can tell, for example, when you look at schoolyards. Kids sit around but they don’t talk. They’re all texting. And accidents have happened at a staggering rate. I mean, it’s skyrocketing. The statistics are incredible.”
Here’s the video.
