Philadelphia man uses a Jammer on a bus to stop phone chatter?

Eric a man on a Philadelphia bus would fire up his hand held jammer when he did not want to hear the conversations around him.  He is quoted on saying that the other people on the bus were “extremely loud, no sense of just privacy or anything. When it becomes a bother, that’s when I screw on the antenna and flip the switch.”  He also claims that he did not know that the act of using a jammer carried a fine.  To avoid the fine he told NBC 10 that he was going to dispose of his $300 jammer.  Since everyone has a cell phone or other forms of technology now would you use a jammer to stop the annoyance.  Do you think that since everyone has these annoying technology that more people will become fed up with the chatter and try to stop it like this man in Philadelphia, Eric.

In response to Shane’s blog: NCAA Advertising

Do you think these cheesy advertisements are needed or is it a spot where maybe the schools can save a bit of money to invest in new and more exciting promotions?

I do not believe these schools need to show those advertisements but they could definitely make better commercials showing what they can offer student athletes or other students.  Those commercials only really point out the smiling people who have all the friends and the great programs.  They could show instead of the big classes and how the NCAA athletes are in those classes as well.  That would show the NCAA name and increase the popularity of student athletes.
