And of course, who could forget

This here thread is particularly asinine IMHO. I'm shamelessly patriotic (despite having grown up in New York,) but I think this is a personal decision, not particularly common and the whole "sent home to mommy in a box without a head thing" is really unnecessary.

I personally have executed the ultimate act of FFer patriotism-- I switched to American Airlines-- freeing up my Plat upgrade seat for those who serve so bravely...
