I have used GPS on my phone but mostly for testing only. I simply do not 
find I have much need, in part because I live in a small city but even 
when I visit a larger city I tend to use printed maps. But that is MY 
choice and I can see the appeal to a GPS. I do not get the attack 
against people for making different choices than you (coming from F. 
Russell, not you Carroll).

Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They 
cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel 
somehow superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.
