[SML] Please Turn Off All Electronic Devices

[Richard Niederberg]

Dear Stephen,
To maintain quality control for adjacent audience members, next time DON'T
Restrain Yourself. You would be doing favor for others, not just for
yourself. Mace is seriously not recommended, as it would effect other
audience members.
/s/ Richard
