Absolutely, 100% and completely, Pat.
And I'll say something a little bit controversial.
You know, my most treasured possession now, the thing that I could not live without is my mobile phone.
Because if I had had a mobile phone in my pocket in Iran or Afghanistan,
or the Philippines.
I would have been able to use that phone to speak to the news desk in London, wherever I was in the world.
I could transmit pictures live back to them.
You know, wherever I went in the world as a reporter, the first question was, where's the nearest telephone?
I need to call London.
Now it's in my pocket.
Together with every note that Beethoven wrote,
every note that Johan Strauss wrote, every note that plus 10,000 photographs.
I mean, these phones are a miracle.
I know they can be abused.
I know we've got to regulate them.
But honestly, I've said to my wife many times, you know, when I decide to check out and go to the big newsroom in the sky, put my phone in the wooden box with me and whatever you do, don't forget the charger.
