phone phun

Since moving into D.C. we've noticed an odd phenomenon - when we're talking on a cell phone at our house (where we don't get a real strong signal) and a plane flies over (which happens often, since we're under the flight path to Reagan National) our service momentarily cuts out.
I don't know why a plane overhead would affect signals from the ground-based cell towers. Our only (tongue-in-cheek) theory is the CIA is jamming cell signals underneath planes over DC.

Anybody else got an explanation?

DC is a fucked up place to live.
Someone told me they keep all the mad people on the street there as spies but really they're undercover agents.
