If I may, sir, be so bold as to offer a contrary opinion.  Please do not
embark upon a path which propagates or otherwise lends credence to
ringing tones.

I might further profess that cellular communication devices have silent mode, or
vibrate, which makes them much less offensive.  Why notify friends and
coworkers of your new jingle, when you can simply buzz, contently
wrapped in the knowledge that your phone is communicating to you, and you
alone?

May you bask in the glory of the silent telephone, and may you have my
thanks in advance.

Silently yours,
-A. Dave
