I've had this link passed on to me by a friend, I'm putting it on hootoo and you'll get the meaning of it if you watch it.
Worth passing on to none hootooers

This is short but the impact .................

congratulations to Volkswagen I reckon!

Everyone needs to see this one this is pretty awesome, and it only takes a few seconds:

A Hong Kong movie theatre asks its patrons to leave their mobile/cell phones ON when they enter to see the movie showing.
Using that, Volkswagen made an eye-opening ad...

Funny thing is I looked away myself just before the crash
and had to play it again to see what I missed. This did not
create any great desire to buy a VW but did arouse a craving
for Chinese take-away.

What is a [{(Location Based Broadcaster)}]?

How exactly did they text/ring/??? everyone's phone?

Probably a very powerful but short-range multi-band signal.

Though the radiation effect from such a localized blast of EM
on such a broad bandwidth may prove harmful in later years

Radio kills!

I was suspecting it was something more like 4square or something, but hey, Radiation is great too.

"Ever been to Utah? Ra-di-a-tion. Yes, indeed. You hear the most outrageous lies about it. Half-baked goggle-box do-gooders telling everybody it's bad for you. Pernicious nonsense. Everybody could stand a hundred chest X-rays a year. They ought to have them, too. When they canceled the project it almost did me in. One day my mind was full to bursting. The next day - nothing. Swept away. But I'll show them. I had a lobotomy in the end."
