The inconspicuous cell phone ring  Reader Clint writes:  Afraid
of your phone going off during class, a meeting or in the middle
of a movie? Instead of setting your ring tone to Honkey Tonk
Badonkadonk, record the sound of someone sneezing and set it as
your ring tone. This way, instead of annoying glares or
interruptions you'll know your phone still has its ringer on in
a discreet manner.  Yes, this idea is a little weird, but I sort
of love it. Granted, you're going to have to be keen to the
sound of your sneezetone (or coughtone, hiccuptone, throat-
clearingtone), and it still might come off as totally bizarre to
people sitting next to you, but this seems like a good step
forward in cell phone etiquette - at least for those of you
who've been caught with your ringer on one too many times.
