Cell Phones And Marco Polo

Do you remember when you played the game Marco-Polo in the swimming pool? One kid with his eyes shut bouncing around the pool bottom yelling ‘MARCO!’ while the other kid is avoiding him and whispering the required ‘polo!’ response. Well with so many cell phones prevalent, I have noticed that rounding up family and friends in the malls, or schools, or any large area is like a game of Marco-Polo. You call them, give them your location, they answer and give you their location. Marco! Polo!
