Reply #23: Land lines -> you can't record, and the quality sucks

[Patiod]

I interview people for a living (we pay them, and tell them they're being recorded). You can't record cell phones. Plus the sound quality is so appalling -- I'm constantly saying "what?" or just trying to interpolate what the hell someone just said to me when I'm on a cell phone. When I'm on a landline and someone else is on a cell, it's better.

Plus, I really hate people's behavior on cell phones

If they ever legalize cell phone use on planes, I'm going to start singing "Oklahoma" at the top of my lungs if some asshole decides that the seat next to me is a good place to negotiate the next takeover of Nabisco.
