When the FA came by to offer BOB meals, I asked her is she would swap a drink coupon for a meal, especially since I had been booted out of FC by a pair of Sky Marshals. She looked totally scandalized, comped the meal, and aksed me "not to say that aloud, again."

Is outing a bunch of Sky Marshals a federal crime on the par with outing Valerie Plame? Is it the equivalent of shouting "Fire" in a crowded movie theater?

If they don't want to be noticed, they should learn to be LESS OBVIOUS.
