I have made many sacrifices for FlyerTalk. Just yesterday, I slaughtered a ram in its name.
I have made close to 7000 posts, and over a dozen of them have been useful to others here.
I was the first to post that "Skyteam" was being considered as a name for that alliance (months before it happened). I broke the news that Delta was "de-hubbing" Portland. And, most importantly, I invented the term "OBA" over on OMNI.
