What a thrill. Listening to the brain dead chirping away on their devices is always such a treat. I'll be walking a lot more if this event comes to pass.

Great, now I will have to listen to a bunch of jackasses talk on their phone about nothing whenever I take the subway.

Rather stick to just driving.

True, true, the dealers will be able to close their drug deals a lot sooner.

Actually, during one snarl on the Gardiner, I elected to take the subway. Because of this, I missed text messages from a lady I was to see, that told me her period had come and so she wouldn't be able to see me. By the time I got out of the subway, it was too late to book an alternate. Count me among those wanting cell service in the subway!

Strongbeau, who needs red wings!That would be a important call. No way to start a weekend, and yes a definite need for cell phone access in subways!" Not " hearing all the bitch winery to and from work.

You know, I swear there must be a market for cell phone jammers for high end restaurants, schools, places of worship and courts.

Sure there is - easy to buy online but illegal in the US, I'm not sure about Canada...
