In looking at this article I've been thinking a lot lately about the time between the iRAT and the T-RAT.  While waiting for others to finish what do you allow?  I don't allow any materials.  I do allow them to go tot he restroom.  I debating about policing cellphone use.  Right now it kind of servers as a pacifier (keeping them quiet while others finish). 

What do you allow or prohibit between iRAT's and the T-RAT's?

"
Arthur: It would have to be a 747.
Cobb
: Why is that?
Arthur
: Because on a 747 the pilot is up top, and the first class cabin is in the nose, so no one would walk through. But you'd have to buy out the entire cabin. And the first class flight attendant.

Saito
: I bought the airline.....It seemed neater."
