I can actually see 'Glassholes' becoming the commonly accepted name for wearers of this device! Might want to copyright that word ;-)

Agreed. 'Nuff said.

@OldArrow:

The aggressive suing of everyone left, right, and centre for ridiculous sums of money is a very American pursuit. I would not consider it to be any part of "civilization".

"...prestige empty compensation items like Bentleys, jets, women..."

Don't think women would appreciate being considered as empty compensation items. Prestige or otherwise.
