This is great - glad to see a company talking a stand like this. I hope that more companies will adopt policies like this. The cell phone is a DISEASE of sorts. Texas movie theater makes an example (and a PSA) of a texting audience member | The Lookout - Yahoo! News

Good for Alamo. I wish others would do the same. |

Hmm, maybe we should start a "Is there a such thing as a considerate cellphone user?" thread...

Cell phones help create behaviors that are harming our society. Less human interaction, killing people while texting while driving, ADD, cell yell, rude usage in public places etc...
While you are right, it is the user, I can't help but feel that cellphones are a BIG problem. It's invaded my daily life, and many times each day I find myself getting angry about a cellphone for one reason or another. And I know I'm not the only one.
