On my recent trip to Chicago I did several of the Chicago Architecture Foundation's excellent tours. On one of them the docent requested that people not use their cellphones, I saw the agony on several people's faces (indeed, one beseeched "How about texting?") and in the end several of them could not make it past the halfway point on a two-hour tour without using their phones. Sigh. (I don't say "without getting their phones out" because several of them clutched their phones in their hands all the way up to that point even though they weren't using them then.)
