I think people using a cell phone whilst using a rest room is freakish -- no phone call is that important - one of the other can wait while you do your business.

That being said... I really don't care that dumb dora in the seat ahead of me is talking about her illicit affairs of the weekend, her choice to air her dirty laundry, However, when I can clearly hear her conversation, then she's makiing it my business and intruding on my right to peace and quiet. People can talk on their phones all they want to -- however they have to remember they are out in public, and they need to speak in library voices because they are not alone - and it's just plain rude...

I feel the same way about the people who have their IPods and CD Players on headphones and I can hear the feedback from it - -IT DOESN"T HAVE TO BE THAT LOUD, you are intruding on my right to peace and quiet...
