Recruited another FlyerTalker
While we were checking in for our NRT-SFO flight on Sunday, I overheard the lady next to me saying "Oh, I don't know. Any seat is fine." As a FlyerTalker, this made me cringe, so I felt it was my duty to intervene. After I got her comfortably assigned to 17B, my wife commented to her that I learned it all through FlyerTalk. She quickly took out a pad of paper to write down the URL and said she would check it out right away.

CommunityBuzz seems more appropriate.
Nonetheless, good job! ^ ^ ^ ^ I would have cringed too if I heard that ("Any seat is fine").
