I wish there was something that could be built into a building to utterly nullify cell phone signals inside it. Then I wouldn't have to tell ten people every day that we don't allow cell phones in the library and they have to turn them off, and no they can't make outgoing calls either.

I wouldn't want to do anything illegal! I felt a bit guilty today when Connie and I used the express (12 items or fewer) line with too many items in the cart. :-)

There's always the low tech solution for mobile phone pests. Repeat their end of the conversation, or comment on it, loudly. Once, on the bus, a woman was having a conversation, and a man sitting across the aisle, one row behind her, kept telling her again and again that speaking on the cell phone wasn't permitted. She eventually gave up trying to have her conversation.

LOL, that's great. Somehow I don't think it would be appropriate for me to do, though, being an employee of the library and all.
