Who is listening to this announcement? [br] [originaltext] Ladies and gentlem

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. Because of the large number of planes waiting to take off, twenty-five to be exact, we can expect to sit on the runway for a good fifteen minutes or so. I ask you all to be patient, and we’ll be airborne soon. In the meantime, please remain in your seats. Turn off your cell phones and obey the no-smoking sign. Approximately 20 minutes after take-off, the flight attendants will begin serving drinks. In order to keep you waiting no longer than necessary, they will be coming around the cabin now to take your order. Thank you for your patience.
