So, lighten up and take the quiz and if you earn a
perfect score, you can feel good about going back to your
one-on-one love affair with your cell phone.
As usual, this quiz is taken on the honor code in which
you will allow yourself only two minutes to answer each
question and no help from trying to Google the answer and no
group participation. Either you are a dummy or a genius.
