Very interesting stuff on mobile phones that I didn't know about....

"As the high tech age takes over more and more of our lives manufacturers will go to any lengths to get the sometimes scarce minerals that go into them. Tantalum is one such rare ingredient. Few of us know that in the middle of Africa much human suffering is created in the pursuit of it."

My wife grew up in Africa...I don't think we even grasp how our everyday life exploits millions and is directly related to bloodshed (like diamonds).

WOW! Thanks for sharing Mereck. That's a shame. If people only knew.

The problem is even if people know, most would plead ignorance and ignore what they have learned.
