That means they will hang up and listen to the answer on the radio as apposed to staying on the phone to maybe ask a follow up question, that's all. This may be because they are being charged for the phone call via long distance charges or mobile charges. Or more likely since they cant turn their radio up while on the phone and theres a few second delay between whats spoken and when its heard on the radio they want to hear themselves on the radio.

Excellent, thank you.

This "order in nature" always gets me. Obviously it had to work together in order to survive. Those situations and subjects that couldn't work in order failed. Like most of the animals and plants that are now no longer with us. Like the palm trees under many feet of ice in Antarctica dont seem like a creation or why maybe some 3-5% of the earth surface is really habitable to humans. Thats an ever-evolving eco system. It's total luck.
