Recliners belong in the cargo hold with the luggage and boxes. The temperature is more conducive to sleeping, no lights, and no smelly food or serving noises. Also, no announcements from the Captain that it's 72 degrees and raining, just when you nod out.</font>
Methinks your complaint should not be with the recliners, but the airlines that ask that the recline function be installed. It -is- an option, you know.
So, here is a question: It seems like the people who are most rabid about the folks in front of them reclining are tall. It would also seem like those are the same people who would achieve some additional comfort by reclining themselves.
If you hate recliners, do you refrain from reclining?
