THE PERSON I SAID WHO FLEW OVER A MILLION WAS NOT B_WATSON!

I think you owe us both an apology for inferring we were liars - several times.

You are quoting me out of context and out of order. I said I didn't believe anybody was flying "well over" 1 M flight miles year after year, and that this was an "urban legend"

You said "Ask our own B_Watson whether his annual flying is an "Urban Myth." Logic indicates that you offer B_Watson's activity as proof that somebody does "well over" 1M flight miles/yr.

I didn't call anybody a liar. I am simply saying I don't believe your claim that somebody has "well over" 1M flight miles year after year as a passenger. I am sure you and others believe it, and if you can offer me tangible proof, so would I.

It is a big jump to say I am calling you a liar because I don't believe your claim. In doing so, you are the one who is making derogatory personal comments, not me.

1M flight miles/yr at an average speed of 500 mph would be 23% the entire year, 365 days, 24/7. This doesn't include ground travel and airport time.

I simply don't believe it happens as you claim. I'll be the first to admit I am wrong when I am convinced. Until then, I will allow you get the last word in, as I am tiring of this thread. You have made a pretty extreme claim and offer no supporting evidence.
