I don’t know about you, but I’m not particularly excited about the plans
to offer wireless telephone service on airplanes. Now, wi-fi internet
access is a good thing! I’m not sure I’ll be able to afford it, but it
would be a big productivity boost for travelers.
But I really don’t want to sit beside someone carrying on their
conversation over the roar of jet engines. Do you?
It would probably sound like one long Verizon commercial, “Can you hear
me now? Hello! Can you hear me now?”
There’s a website to help us out. Visit http://www.coudal.com/Shhh.pdf
and download cards you can give to your airplane seatmate, or the guy at
the next table in the restaurant, or the lady behind you at the ball
game.

I agree! I don’t like hearing half a conversation anywhere…especially if it was the person next to me on a plane yelling!
Maybe then the airlines could give out those huge headphones for the rest of us so that we won’t hear anything but the music or movie!
