My wife too thought I was nuts until she realized that we fly in F EVERYWHERE. Her father is a travel nut (but not an FTer and it may be better that way, I don't need anyone knowing when a 'business trip' is really a mileage run) and *HE* flies mostly coach, even international. That helped to ease my marital understanding quotient but what really did it is the upcoming $25/night rate at MSY. I'm sending her and her girlfriends for a night and they're beyond excited about it... now she only laughs at me a little.
