Ride (and listen) in Peace

I totally agree with the sentiments expressed by the following letter to the editor from Moraga:
-----

"I believe it is time for BART to consider cell-phone-free zones in their trains whereby cell-phone users be limited to certain cars on the train (maybe the first and last cars) and the rest of the passengers can ride in peace and quiet.

Nothing is more annoying than being subjected to others' inane and insipid personal phone conversations. It is the worst kind of sound pollution."

And while we are at it, how about having all theatres from the Opera House on down block cell phone signals since so many clods can't seem to remember or don't care to turn off their cell phones during performances. It also seems that walking on the sidewalk can be somewhat difficult as cell phone users and iPod users get so wrapped up in their toys that they block the sidewalk and act like they are the only ones there. #%&*#$%@&$#
