Why do people answer their cell phones when they know they cannot talk? In the last twenty four hours I have called two people - one in an physician's exam room with the physician actually present, the other with his wife at another couple's home - who definitely should not have been talking to me. But they answered anyway. Why? In both cases I knew that they knew it was I calling (they have caller ID). And they both knew if it was anything earth-shaking I would leave a message which they could retrieve with seconds. Or I would have texted the emergency if there was one.
Don't be rude to the people who are graciously giving you their time and attention. Ignore the incoming call until you can talk.
