stop the FCC from allowing cellphone calls on airplanes--just allow internet and texting!

Created by D.B. on November 22, 2013

With internet and texting, people can get their communication needs met without disturbing their fellow passengers. Imagine you've managed to doze off in one of those tiny seats only to be woken up to shouting into that tiny cellphone microphone. "What's up girlfriend! You're not going to believe what we did!" or "Oh my god! Did you see Miley Cyrus' video?" No one wants to hear that crap-NO ONE!-not even the person on the other end. Commercial aviation has been going on for roughly 80 years. It got by fine without cellphone calls. The government doesn't need to make flying worse. It's bad enough with the TSA feel-up and their microwave oven.
