I'll second that. I'd rather know.
I do listen to the announcements, first thing I do is find the nearest exit.
Best one I ever heard: A pilot on America West. "Ladies and Gentlemen, our take off will be delayed shortly while we file an amended flight plan to route around some severe weather.
We'll let you know our progress, but while you wait, please remember that its better to be down here wishing you were up there, than up there wishing you were down here..."
