Yep. I can think of some good reasons to have it on, but me, I'd be screening calls. (It wouldn't be my primary contact number anyway.)

Heck, I'm surprised it even worked in the hospital. Our local hospital has cell-phone jammers in place so you can only use them in the lobby, I think. Apparently the phones can interfere with the monitoring equipment? or something?

They probably just interfere with people's sanity! :-) (They don't REALLY even interfere with airplane navigation equipment. I suspect changes on that one will be coming soon.)

I'll see if I can find some citations in trustworthy places. This seems to be common knowledge among the pilots I know, but "common knowledge" isn't quite what I want to use for mythbusting. :) Might take me a little bit to find this.
