Hmm...this has led me to an interesting question. I wonder how many of us do screen our calls and for what reasons.
I think for us to have a truly well functioning society we must have some element of manners, politeness, and consideration that plays into our actions. Using a cell phone on a subway or a bus is just another example. I would never dream of subjecting people to my conversation in an enclosed space. I know I have a tendency to forget how loud I am (in conversation and on the phone) and so I usually refrain from speaking in that kind of space. That's just polite behavior. I don't know how your momma raised you all, but my momma raised me to consider others when choosing a mode of behavior, regardless of what I see as my "right."
