He pick an arbitrarily very very large number to aggregate the statistic for his photos.  Yet he forgot a simple fact, US has over 3 billion population.  A photo full of old cell phones looks scary, but you do the math, it is only one new cell phone per person every two years, which is quite reasonable.<\/p>\n<p>Here is my art work depicts half a cell phone, equal to the number of cell phones retired per person in the US every year.<\/p>\n<p>.<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.horace.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/half_phone.jpg\" title=\"half phone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.horace.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/09\/half_phone.jpg?w=474\" alt=\"half phone\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>See, old cell phone is not that scary after all if you represent the statistic in the right way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is it in the photo?
