The Gamete against the Cell

Cell-phone users can be very inconsiderate. I always felt that they are thrilled by a new call, up to the point of sometimes being rude to the people in front of them. Well, here is the proof:
Fourteen percent of the world's cell phone users report that they have stopped in the middle of a sex act to answer a ringing wireless device [...] "People can't bear to miss a call," [...] "Everybody thinks the next call can be something really exciting. And getting so many calls proves social success," she said. "It fulfills a fundamental insecurity."
I'm not sure about the rest of the people, but in terms of cells, gametes should always be more important than phones.
