There's a nice interview in the G & M as well right now (yesterday or today--I don't know as I read it online).

I'll be picking up the cd when it's out for sure.

Not trying to be negative, and I know it's public news, but are you sure he wants all this attention to "out" him on the board and have people "connecting the dots" from different circles of life. I know I'd be a little apprehensive about it.

He outed himself several times in the past, including the first post in the thread mentioned by tcook052 above.

IIRC he is an elite and does collect AP miles so does that count?

True, but it's different when it's the conscious choice of the indiviual themselves making the post vs. a random. With that I digress. Congrats Jan as well.

have the print Globe and Mail article as well. Unfortunately, it's been edited for content by the newspaper. I would have enjoyed reading more. A nice interview otherwise.

Sometimes FlyerTalk is about community too- so I think in my own opinion, this is ok to comment given his many contributions to FT.

Show some respect for your fellow posters. Calling him "the kid who was complaining about not getting access to lounges despite his status" is a pretty petty remark. You could have searched to see if that was the case instead of airing what would seem to be a pet peeve of yours in this thread.

Enjoy your tour Jan!
