I'm not certain about this forum, but when it comes to getting on a plane, the different "elite" levels are not what they appear. Somewhere, in the dark recesses of the mind of each of us, where we allow no one else to enter, I suspect there are really only two levels: Me, and Everyone Else.

P.S. Oh yeah... about the new member ratings system, how 'bout just putting the total number of posts beside or below the members name?
