For several weeks now we have been noticing, here and there on the streets around Boston and its suburbs, a disturbing number of individuals walking alone while engaged in animated conversation with invisible interlocutors.
We know what you are thinking, but we are fairly certain that these particular individuals were not talking on cell-phones, unless they have been miniaturized to the point of corporeal implantation. When you see a 6 foot 4, 130 lb. bald guy naked except for stained gym shorts, shouting at the empty air, waving his arms as if batting at invisible mosquitoes, you don't think Verizon.
