I skimmed thru the very short first post on the subject when I actually found THIS thread first:

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=497004

...and not the one that is actually where we are typing now. I had actually not yet read the http://www.allheadlinenews.com/articles/7001163483 web article and so yeah, big deal. I admit not reading it even if it was short so, whatever. Arrest me! and thanks, itsme , for your theory on such readings.

But while everyone's on the subject of finding errors in people's ways, what was that other comment supposed to mean where "...Nobody has pointed out that Perrott is an Australian. Maybe he's a descendant of the earliest arriving English settlers, not exactly the same stock as arrived at Jamestown or Plymouth Rock."

ha ha ha

Does this somehow infer that all aussie decendents are obvious criminals? (if so that makes me like them even better) Well, I figure that some of the Jamestown and Plymouth Rock peeps did a bit of native butchering and slave trading in their days, so I guess the judgement all depends on what side of the law of the times you are on! Today it IS the Fox News types and those they tout, who seem to get away with murder!

Hence my new stance that this bloke who allegedly stole the miles we are talking about can in fact be considered by some to be a Robin Hood of sorts!

Cool!

BTW, nowhere in the original post that I read or skimmed did it say anything about stealing miles from airlines so sue me if I missed that, but if I lose the lawsuit, please allow me to pay you off with my mileage earning credit card, ok?

LOL
