There may actually be people on the manifest that are connecting (as part of an MR, maybe dropping off a package and flying right back, or to FAI, etc.), not that I know of a single FTer that would conduct himself* with such foolishness!

* singular, for grammatical correctness, not to insinuate that it is a male that would do such a thing
