You could build such a system into the building material itself. While the law clearly prohibits using a device to actively disrupt a cell-phone signal, there are no rules against passive cell-phone blocking. That means using things like wallpaper or building materials embedded with metal fragments to prevent cell-phone signals from reaching inside or outside the room. Some buildings already have designs that unintentionally block radio signals due to thick concrete walls or a steel skeleton.

Cell phones are a problem in the classroom. Why can't their signals be actively jammed?

I had to read the article twice before I understood what a "Quiet Car" is.

I was removed from the church vicinity Thursday during this Easter because I asked for the people who were coughing loudly, persistently, annoyingly and liberally to try to quiet down and offered them candies to soothe their throat.

One of the people I offered candies reacted violently to me and threatened me. I objected to his reaction and threat but I was the only one escorted out with many actually laughing at me no less.

I've decided to leave the Catholic church

I no longer consider myself a Catholic.

Damn chickens. Up for slaughter and yet they dream of heaven? Chickens belong to this earth. Plain stupidity is common I guess and the dare would always take advantage of these people. Weakling, stupid, powerless. No God in these people for certain. Only talks and day dreaming. But they are happy only with talks and day dreaming so see nothing wrong with that.



Only eagles belong to heaven.

Because they just might jam important calls in the school vicinity.

Did anyone bother to get a look at the rude cellphone talker. She should have had to pay fare to ride in the cattle car.

I haven't rode on a train in 20 yrs. The seats now must be HUGE.

One special teatment for these people is ''the farm''. We used it to silence overly talkative and overly smart people that just wouldnt shut up. While they were talking away we started impersonating farm animals. Try explaining your glorius world view while someone is meooowing at you . Or next to you if you're on a cell phone
