Well, I know I've been asleep at the stick for a while, but I'm back in the blogging groove, so here's a quick catch up to end the year in style.
Talk about asleep at the stick, this story is amazing and scary. I guess it's true when they say those auto pilots are so sophisticated that the planes can fly themselves!
On the flying and environment front, here's some good news! I'm waiting for the day that we run these things on old Chinese food oil. Imagine 10 hours with the delicious smell of General Tso in your nose.
Believe it or not the Airline Passengers' Bill of Rights is still not moving anywhere in Congress. Continuing to deny flying passengers the right to get off a plane after hours of waiting is insanely stupid and leads to story after story of needless inconvenience and annoyance. I just don't get why the same folks that can figure out how to safely fly millions around the world, can't figure out how to deplane a 100 people over the course of 9 hours. Somethings just not right about that.
Anyway, the blog will be back with more frequent updates in 2009, for all five of you reading!
