This reminds me of a night in a bar in Hong Kong back in -89. 5-6 young
chinese businessmen came into the bar and before they sat down at their
table, all of them unloaded their suitpockets of beepers and mobile phones
and put everything in a BIG pile in the middle of their table. Later when
they
had received their drinks and the table was pretty crowded with glasses
and electronics something started ringing in the big pile of beepers and
phones.
It was great fun watching their panic stricken faces as they tried to find
the
source of the ringing without spilling any of the drinks.
