My cell is on all the time when I'm out. It is also always on vibrate. If I get a call in class, I just hang up on the first ring (so I know the number and can call back that person later). In the movie theatre, I walk out to the tunnel as far away as I can before I even take it out of my pocket, hence no distracting light or sound for the other people. On the road, I use it at stoplights sometimes, or pull over. There isn't much point in having a cell if you're going to turn it off, and since I don't have voicemail, it has to be on for me to be able to return people's calls.

monkeysugar: I'm one of those annoying tall people. I even try to sit with perfect posture to boot. At least I don't have a 'fro.
