What amuses me though is that even when they`re talking on the phone, Mexicans continue to use lots of gestures that are completely wasted because the guy on the other end can`t see them.

Heh. That's how I am too. Lots of hand gestures. And I too use them when I'm on the phone. On a related note, I also catch myself nodding in agreement during phone conversations, which probably comes of as me having no response to what's being said to me.
