They actually mentioned the oxygen/phone "problem" in the NHS literature about local hospital admission here, about 10 years ago, believe it or not. It was at around the same time as the urban myth about the chap filling his car's petrol tank when his mobile rang and - whoooosh! Nobody ever knows where that petrol station was.
