Could you ****wits stop bottom posting like this? SNIP THE ****ING ARTICLE.

Some people are never happy. If you bottom post, someone is not happy.
If you top post someone isn't happy. If you snip someone complains
that they don't know to what you are referring. If you don't snip
someone complains.

I rarely post, but GEESSSHHH!

Per Magda:
Not to mention those nasty nail
clippers!

Can somebody explain the nail clipper rationale to me?

I know they relented sometime this year and now allow them onboard... but back
in the beginning what did they think they'd be used for that a half-dozen
allowed items couldn't be used for too?

Can't. There isn't any.

The "handle" could easily be made into a sharp object. You'd be
surprised what an enterprising young terrorist can do.

Do you reckon those people would hang around inside the aeroplane? I don't!

They agree to do so, or they don't sit by the exits.

I reckon they'd be the first ones through it, galloping desperately into the
distance.

Not everyone is that selfish.

interested in during an evacuation, not their facial beauty.

Do you expect them to carry you out of the plane?

If a plane looks like it's about to blow up (or sink), I doubt if most of
them would hang around. Some might. People with kids, for instance, will get
their kids and spouses out and then follow them.

I find long nails much more dangerous...

And dirty. (shudder).

Put her on US-MiddleEast routes or US-Pakistani routes. She'll get the
hint and quit.

A wine bottle or Coke can can easily be made into sharp objects.

FAs do it, and so do some other altruistic passengers, if necessary.
