The May issue of Holland Herald features an interview with a Ferry Corsten, "one of the world's most popular DJs". It would seem he is also trying to raise sycophancy to new levels.

"How do you stay cool when things get hot?

I flash my KLM Platinum Flying Blue Card and doors open for me around the world."

OK, I decided to give it a try, starting with my own front door. I'm sorry to say that, even though the door in question wasn't even locked, no amount of flashing my PE card could open it. Even worse, all that flashing did not even cool me down. If anything, it raised my temperature.

Perseverance being a virtue, I shall not give up and keep on flashing my card around the world, hoping to stay cool even in the hottest climates!
