Lebanese boycott cellphones for a day

We're gonna take this as a positive sign, since it means that people over there have finally stopped killing each other for at least long enough that they can start worrying about trivialities like how much they're overpaying for cellphone service, but almost half of Lebanon's 850,000 cellular subscribers participated in a boycott to protest the high fees the networks there charge. The boycott mainly involved them not using their phones for an entire day, a feat that would only be possible to replicate here in the US for roughly a few seconds.
