I'm very indebted and relieved if this is the case, and hope it will
remain the policy of the airlines to ban the use of cell phones while the
aircraft is away from the gate. I can imagine how bad it would be to be
held captive for hours while the usual cell phone bore orders an underling
or their secretary around in a loud voice, or relates intimate details
from the previous night's liaison, or in a similarly loud voice, relates
in detail the long string of other problems in their life. In a restaurant
or the terminal one can put some distance between the annoyance and
themselves. In the usual crammed cattle car we fly in these days? Abu
Ghraib anyone?

You do know how to end that particular irritation real quick don't you?
Join in on their conversation! It was they that invite you in when they
hang their dirty laundry in public. Say something loud and obnoxious,
but supportive, something along the lines of, "Yeah, you tell 'er,
buddy! Don't let that woman push you around like that.", or "Heh, I had
a secretary act like that once. I fired her, and that's what you should
do." Or even better, "You did have your shirts dry cleaned, didn't
you? Don't want your jilted wife catching that lipstick on your collar."
They'll shut-up once they realize they're in public and not a telephone
booth.
