always to include the phrase, "You're breaking up." Cellphone dead
zones have irritated many, but recently they have really annoyed Mayor
Thomas M. Menino, who says his cellphone conversations get cut off day
after day as he traverses the city's neighborhoods.

acceptable explanation why a city like Boston should have so many
pockets of fog.
