nice post; I think there are people who fly/work for a lot of companies; even DL/WN who read these forums who share your passion.

Not long ago, my Mom commented that it seems that it was more recently, that I began to enjoy flying so much. I informed her that we took our first flight on a 727 from MCI to STL connecting to a 747 to FRA. Then we returned on a 767, misconnected in JFK, and had to switch to DL, connect in ATL and stop in MEM before arriving in IND. She said, "Wow! You remember all that?" I said, "Yes. Would you like to know how many seats were on each plane?"
To add some value to this thread, I agree with the OP. There are many posts that are immediately flamed by others. I find the behavior interesting, and I have often wondered if these posters are @$$ holes in real life or just on Flyertalk.
