Welcome onboard, flytime 35..
I am familiar with this site and I agree that it is interesting and "eye-opening". However, for future reference, I suggest you to post this under the UNITED or GENERAL TALK forum in order to cater to the right audience properly.
Personally I do not think that posting in the wrong forum is a "big deal", specially for a first-timer. As you get familiar with this site, you will find that it contains a wealth of knowledge thanks to the contribution of "seasoned" frequent travelers and hopefully you can avail of their advice and expertise. Again, welcome and thanks for sharing this with us.
