[ NNSquad ] Pomegranate Phone is a joke, son, a joke!
OK gang, just to be clear, since at least one NNSquad reader appeared to miss the point, the Pomegranate Phone piece is a *joke video* (actually, a viral marketing campaign by Nova Scotia). I thought it was an amusing satire of the bizarreness in the cellular industry, and hoped that my comments about 5G, filters, and saliva clogging, plus "something light to start the week" would drive home the fact that it wasn't serious. I guess I should know better. As I may have mentioned before, some years ago I wrote an April Fools' Day piece for CACM on Matter Transmission ( http://www.csl.sri.com/users/neumann/insiderisks.html#106 ) that was chock full o' puns. But several people still thought it was serious, and I even found it quoted in serious discussion of teleportation theory some time later. As Dr. Smith would say, "Oh the pain, the pain ..." --Lauren-- NNSquad Moderator
