2) On the dive computer example, if the ticket agent doesn't specifically ask you if you have one, do you volunteer it?

3) Would you ever back-to-back ticket using different airlines for personal travel? [/QUOTE]

Honestly speaking, I don't think I would volunteer the information. And I probably would buy back- to - backs if the savings were substantial.

So, at least in answering you I'm trying to be honest .

But I'm not certain that was the issue here.
Does doing something and getting away with it make it correct? That's where my issue is. Posters are trying to justify their actions by this logic as well.

On the corner of my block I saw an accident involving someone running a stop sign at 10 PM and plowing right into someone who had pulled out without their headlights on. It doesn't happen every time, but the law was written to prevent it from happening.
A defense of "I run the stop sign all the time and nothing ever happened before" is a pretty poor defense.

The end result, by the way was that the guy who ran the stop sign was the guilty party. While the lack of head lights was a mitigating factor, stopping at the light (obeying the law) would have prevented the accident.
