The Cell Catcher in the Galena Rye
"Anyway, I keep picturing all these little kids playing some unconnected game in this big field of SNRA and all. Thousands of little kids, and nobody's around - nobody big, with cell phone reception I mean - except me. And I'm standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the reception area cliff- I mean if they're running and they don't look where they're going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That's all I do all day. I'd just be the cell catcher in the SNRA and all. I know it's crazy, but that's the only thing I'd really like to be."

The SNRA consists of 756,000 acres. Since there are 43,560 square feet per acre, this means that the recreation area holds 32,931,360,000 square feet. Therefore, the 970 square feet about which Mr. Phillips complains, takes up a 1 / 41,166,350.5 portion.

Great jumping Jehoshaphat, we have waited amply enough for some potentially lifesaving towers in our SNRA. Let us quit quibbling about these technological enhancing gifts and allow, without further adieu, these beacons of safety to be installed, Godspeed, in this logical spot, by a company who is visibly sensitive to impacts this will bring, both good and bad.

For goodness sakes, we have waited more than long enough for some potentially lifesaving towers in our SNRA. Let us stop quibbling and allow, without further adieu, these beacons of safety to be installed in this logical spot, by a company who is visibly sensitive to impacts this will bring, both good and bad.
