The train company Amtrak has a section called the Quiet Car. It is intended for patrons who want people around them to shut the fuck up and put their beeping devices away. The Quiet Car was created about a decade ago when a group of Philly to D.C. travelers begged Amtrak for a car where their headaches don't get augmented by yammering businessmen on their Blackberrys. The idea has become a hit ever since.
First rule of the Quiet Car: you do not talk in the Quiet Car.
