There are also toys rolling up under Jens feet, and, of course, the never- ending pounding in her back. Diamond: Youre kicking my chair, Eli. Walte: And then, a text message from her partner. “Close to home?” Jen texts back, “five minutes”. And then . Actually, that last part didnt really happen. But, it could when the text messaging ban in Washington State goes into effect January 1st, 2008. But everything that did happen the DJ-ing, GPS-ing and beating the kids all still legal, although Jens parenting magazine does make her feel guilty for it. Diamond: One of our magazines that we got said you shouldnt do anything other than drive while youre driving, but nobody does that. Walte: Really? No one just pays attention to driving? I jumped out of Jens pimped- out mom van and enter Linda Stones BMW to find out. Woman: So were on the highway. (Okay) Lets see what people are doing.,audio text3,Stone: Were in spy mode, and youre our spy leader. Walte: My spy follower, Linda Stone, is an ex-software executive whos now a tech consultant, writing a book about attention.

Woman: That woman is text-messaging, right there. Stone: She is. Woman: In the Honda. Stone: Shes totally stopped and text-messaging. Woman: And looking down at her lap. Walte: OK, OK, I know thats bad. But Im gonna play the role of a rule-obsessed five-year-old here for a minute and ask the obvious: what about the guy we just saw reading the paper?

There are hundreds of things we do in our car that are potentially dangerous,audio text4,distractions. But Linda Stone says the ban on text-messaging is symbolic. She says it represents a larger push to do one thing at a time. Stone: Were looking at different ways to protect our time. You see the signs all around of people caring more about protection and quality of life. Walte: Signs like how everyone and their mom does yoga nowadays. And literal signs that say “no cell phones” in restaurant or even some stores. Stone says the text ban is part of finally declaring: Enough is enough. Stone: I think that if someone had tried to legislate this even five years ago, theres no way that they would have been able to pass this bill. And I think that its because people are so ready to start making changes.
