Wonderful. Now if you have an emergency in the tunnel you can't call. I know it's needful, but I am getting pissed off that our freedoms and lives are being twisted by these Islamist pricks, and we won't REALLY tackle the problem, but paper it over with idiotic airline screening of 80 year old Grandma's etc.

Yea, but this only causes them to use a different type of detonator, such as a timer or a homocide bomber.

>Darn good idea<

I understand your motive, I really do. However, what happens to the person who is mugged, and cannot call for help, or whose family member is stricken with a heart attack, and cannot reach the person on the subway, or any number of other scenarios?

The terrorists win, in either case.

Kinda a dumb do-nothing idea. This just means that you can't "dial in" to activate your cell phone thus using it as a remote triggering device.

But..... you still can use the "timer" option on your cell phone to set off the triggering device for a bomb.

If ya got a cell phone, it can be used to detonate an initiator.

Just learned this of all places.... on TV.

LOL

You're right that it was a good idea, but so would have been keeping it a secret.
