A Really Obvious Idea.... 


Thousands of airliners in the U.S. are equipped with "No Smoking" lights which can be controlled from the cockpit. These lights are pretty much useless, since smoking is banned on domestic flights anyway. 

So here's a new use for these now-obsolete lights: replace the "No Smoking" symbol with a "No Cellphones" symbol. The crew can then signal to passengers exactly when they need to turn off their phones, and when they can turn them back on after the flight is over. It might have helped this clueless woman.

And for those worried about the lack of no-smoking symbols, just go buy a bunch of stickers and put them on the backs of all the seats.
