FWIW, if you took/credited flights to United, Mileage Plus will give you a printed dump of all mileage-earning activity on your account going all the way back to the beginning of the program. (PM if you want details). It'll basically give you dates and flight numbers.

Since something like 90% of my airplane time has been on UA, that got my OpenFlights records pretty accurate. I know I'm missing some NW SYR-DTW-MEM legs back before Mrs. bdj and I got married and were doing the long-distance thing

Seems like age has gotten the better of me. (or, in reality, I think being a Mother now, has me realizing that I am no longer just responsible for myself. I have two exquisite human beings who I am responsible for!)

Is there anyone else left to shame into creating a FlightMemory (or OpenFlights), aside from Olton Hall and icurhere2?

Yes, me. However, I just tried to add a signature with a link to my FM, but it keeps linking to the FM sign in page. What the heck am I doing wrong?

Weather is clear in IAD. Maybe the chance of rain in LAX is causeing all of the airport employees to call out?

Go in your FM profile and make your stats public.

No, they immediately get on the freeway and drive as fast as possible thereby maximizing their opportunity to run into something or someone. Seriously, in San Diego, there are 50 to 70 accidents on the freeway every day, on average. When it rains, that number spikes from 350 to 400, and the highest I've seen was 425 accidents. In a single day. I do not miss that part of living in SoCal.

Going forward, I will be more accurate, but 40 years of flying is a lot to remember! I have no doubt there are a lot of flights that are not recorded because I simply forgot I took them.

Thank you. Why? Because I have a passion for the material, mainly. I have found that teachers who sound like they care often end up getting more of their material to permanently reside in their students' heads. I also want to give back, because I had a history teacher in high school that made me want to teach...I'm all about wanting to be in the position to be a role model. I also think society is headed way downhill at way too fast a speed, so I want to counter that in my little corner of the planet. Plus, I'm a skilled public speaker and can hold people's attention.

Don't all rush at once to book flights .... seating is limited, and is by appointment only ... you need a gilt edged invitation to enter the Brit Compound to see the beginning of the Lake House construction ....:D

Gilt edged invitation extended to everyone and his/her dog....:D:D:D

Dunkin' may or may not be provided, depends on how I feel!
