When was the last time you heard somebody walking around the plane shaking and yelling "bloody murder"?

If you ever saw an Orthodox Jew pray, you would know that he will rock back and forth very gently, and mumble the prayers in an undertone that is barely audible. Sure, in a synagogue on Saturday or standing in front of the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem, he might show a bit more fervor, but not so in other public situations.
