A campaign by the New South Wales police to raise awareness of the number of teenagers dying as a result of listening to iPods while they cross the road is beginning to reach epidemic proportions :-(

Apple will probably have a hissy fit over the image, but the ad rep that came up with it is brilliant.

To add a few facts here: NSW is the australien state, where Sydney is located. Lots of american tourists there that stumple out the plane without realising, that the cars do not drive on the right side of the street. With jetlag and earphones they do not even haer a f***ing horn!

Our decisions to electronically isolate ourselves from the reality of our true surroundings (whether by ipods, cell phones, pdas, etc.) are beginning to show the undesired consequences that we are witnessing. It may only get worse as the techno-geniuses continue to bombard us with all the latest reality-disconnect devices that we are so hungry to acquire.

In the Ice Age(not the movie) dumb people were killed by wild animals.
In the Information Age dumb people are killed by cars/electricity/ weapons and wild animals.
Natural selection. Short IQ, short life.
