This is a story from at least fifteen years ago, if not longer.
One day I was grocery shopping and came upon what I thought was a poor soul who was carrying on a conversation with herself. She was talking up a storm, all by herself in the canned good aisle. I was feeling sorry for her, thinking she was delusional or something like that.
I turned at the end of the aisle, though, glanced back, and saw that she had a white rectangular-shaped "thing" hanging out of one ear.
Before that day I had never seen a hands-free cell-phone device like that. Guess she was really carrying on a conversation with a real person after all.
