<chuckles> That would have been quite the site.

Someone did ask the question about the first bag fee at the OP Q/A session in LAS and the response from Compton was words to the effect:
We don't particularly want to implement it. However we're still studying it and if we find it does not influence customers decisions - and our competitors keep it - we'd be pressured into to remain competitive on our revenue side.
(that's what I recall, please feel free to correct me if I left something out or misrepresented what was said)
