Really, and we needed a 250,000 dollar study to tell us that! If we know this, then why is it so darn hard for the Texas Legislature to do something about it! OH wait, they may make someone mad, and not get re-elected! Sorry, this issue really ticks me off! It took a ton of arm twisting to get the "No Cell Phone in School Zones" Law past, and it should be common sense!
