I first noticed this Associated Press article, 1 in 4 households with cell phone, no landline , on KurzweilAI.net . Interesting enough, but I got to wondering why the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (aka CDC) did research on landline use. It would seem that the FCC or some other agency associated with telecommunications might be more likely to do such.

We are now facing the UKs first hung parliament in 36 years and the future still remains very uncertain. No party has enough seats to govern alone effectively and the widely predicted back-room negotiations continue. According to news reports, meetings have taken place between the Liberal Democrats and both Labour and the Conservatives. In what appears to be an obvious attempt to woo the Liberal Democrats, Gordon Brown last night confirmed his intention to stand down as Labour leader and put Alternative Vote (AV) into law, followed by a referendum on Proportional Representation (PR). In response, the Conservatives have made a final offer to the Liberal Democrats of a referendum on the AV system. As yet, it is not clear whether the outcome of those negotiations is likely to be a Lib-Con or Lib-Lab pact.
