Not attention span, more like 'awareness' attention.

And I'd suggest you take a look, because it's awesome like this ->

It's awesome like a banana riding an alpaca?

Here's another one along the same lines:

Something along the same lines as this thread. I usually walk the last three miles of my journey home from work each evening to get a bit of exercise, and on part of the walk there is a four way roundabout which has a pedestrian crossing on three of the sides. There is picture of it in the link below. In the Uk, a pedestrian crossing means by law that the pedestrian has right of way exclusively. The amount of times I've almost been hit by cars where the pedestrians are crossing in the picture, as they are trying to look at multiple places simultaneously and fail to notice that there is either a pedestrian or a pedestrian crossing in front of them. I even had one woman who held her hand on her horn and swore at me as I was crossing in front of her as she tried to drive forward, as if it was me that was in the wrong.
