It's Not Nice To Use a Device

I'm all for this idea: "Can ordinarily secular and non-Orthodox Jews turn off their cell phones for Yom Kippur? Can they resist hiding their BlackBerrys under their prayer books? Can they thwart the urge to take a 'bathroom break' during services when they feel compelled to check a new text? A national campaign is urging Jews, and all Americans, to make Yom Kippur, beginning at sunset Sept. 17, 'No-Device Day,' a time to take a break from technology and reconnect with family and community the old-fashioned way: by talking face to face."
