From op-ed page, WSJ (7/5/00)-

"I think a group of concerned travelers should approach the airlines and just surrender. It's useless for the consumer to fight Big Air. They have the planes, they have the destinations, and they appear to have the FAA in their pockets. As a peace offering, I'll reveal how they (airlines) can squeeze even more of us on board. I suggest they rip out all the seats. They can install hooks on the ceiling. And if that isn't enough, I have another thought: When you're boarding a plane, the attendant who takes your ticket can also jab you in the buttocks with a sedative shot. This should knock you out for the duration of the flight."
