I think it's a good idea to try to learn something useful from these threads. For example, in the thread about the drunk passenger, I learned that I should speak up about that potential hazard before the door closes.
In this thread I have learned that returning to an airport at 1am after a mechanical problem on the last flight out to Europe has a good chance of becoming a really crappy situation, for at least a few minutes.
But wait, I think I probably knew that already. So maybe there really is nothing to learn from all this.
