I have a proposal for dealing with (punishing) people who make loud

on the train ... buy! ... sell!")
I recall someone on this group[1] commenting that he overheard one of his
firm's competitors talking about a major contract in such detail on the train
that his company were able to trump the loudmouth's tender.
There are mobile phone jammers available from electrical retailers, but
they cost up to £200.
Still, it would be worth the money just to watch the misery on the
callers face as they try and figure out why their call keeps cutting
out.

A friend of mine suggested a small device that transmitted the sound
of a low flying aircraft on bluetooth frequencies - it would be
exceedingly amusing to watch those with bluetootehed mobile phones
diving for cover - in the office :-)
One day we'll work out how to make one..........
