intelligent thread, though not everyone seems to posess the same quality.
one word of advice to many:-
the scariest one letter word in the English language- "I" - avoid it.
i think a lot of people raised the same issues again and again. while screaming kids bother me on flights, I do not get particularly militant about it.
one thing is hard to understand. how do these infants grow legs long enough to kick the seats in front of them in first class? i travel at the back mostly in what should be the wailing kid walking area , so pardon my ignorance.
its a wonder how many people manage to offend without intending to (forget the psychopaths who do it intentionally, they are just showing their CLASS)
sincere regards to all.
