Failure to Multitask

Some may have noticed my post earlier with the content containing "la dee dah."

The University of Utah recently conducted a study which found that only 2.5% of people can truly multitask without impairing their ability to focus on both tasks. In this case, students were observed while driving and talking on a cell phone. Almost all of the students experienced a decrease in driving performance by 20-30%.

Apparently I am not in that 2.5%, and I am not a "supertasker".

I had written the title of what I wanted to post about, and the above mentioned content to remind myself to write about it later when my phone rang. As I answered, I went to his save, and instead hit publish. I always wondered why some blog posts from other blogs didn't make any sense and led to no where when I clicked on the link :)
