I have posted this story once before when someone lost there ipod.

I was flying with my family coming back from a trip to EZE on the DFW-STL segment. My mom left a large bag in the overhead compartment in Y (row 9). It contained - 4 ipods (family members and hers) 2 digital cameras, and an assortment of other not-so-valuable things. Same process that you had to get it back, but no luck. ~ 5-6 weeks later, we get a call from the STL airport that they have found our bag. I go to pick it up, and it contains everything. Not 1 item missing.
