Sigh... I inwardly battle about being able to look out "my own" window for which scenery I also paid for... but then I acquiesce to the the FA's imperative and to morality, that we are all people together and should be nice to each other and get along. Later, sometimes I slide the window half-way up for a peek and feel rebellious again.

A part of me admires that man; I would not be able to stick to my guns in the face of all that adversity. But intellectually I agree with you: it's inconsiderate and anti-social to disturb everyone else.
