D.O.P.-T. (yesterday)

I have suddenly noticed that people's ring tones are now usually . . . phone rings. Not loud bursts of crackly music, wailing babies, farts, or other cute noises. Telephones ring in the booths when the friend outside wants the friend inside to hurry up and leave. Telephones ring in the bus - the "music" comes from leaky earbuds. New-found austerity? Are people more concerned now about the risk of the wrong kind of noise erupting in a serious meeting? Or did they just get tired of trying to top each other?
