+1. I could even add to that a hint how to recognize me if you haven't seen me before:
you see that guy who boards the bus early enough to catch that first-door place to urge out first and march determinedly towards the ATR staircase first, jacket uncovered ready at hand, carry-on latched and laptop bag on shoulder, stepping in with hello and waving the carryon with one arm to exactly-measured overhead bin, throwing laptop bag and jacket on 17D at the same time, sitting down on 17C to leave others pass by. 4 seconds. Maybe 5. Then putting the laptop bag underneath after picking old newspaper (not as old as LGG's though!) from the bag for reading, jacket folded in my lap.
