Yes, too true.

We are conditioned to allow people to have their private space in  
public spaces by ignoring them.  So, some people insist on being  
noticed through loud noises like the old boom boxes or the newer cell  
phone conversations.

In the past, if someone jabbered endlessly to empty air we presumed  
that they were out of touch with reality.  They weren't all there.   
Now, thanks to cell phones, they are out of touch with ... locality.   
They aren't all here.
