I couldn't agree with you more, Jeff. But, I do
confess, I am glad to see that some of us still
have a sense of humour. :-)

Well, and NOT that I'm condoning his action, at
least he didn't have a go at anybody by name...
<whew> But still, I agree he was wrong, in an
impersonal personal kind of way, which makes it
just as wrong as any other kind. I am completely
with you Jeff here on this.

Probably every other airport in the world, every
major international stop, anyway. No, I'll be
honest, I had pictures of the first class vs. no
class service and experience of an ICANN meeting
in mind. I simply began to imagine that there
can/might be a great disparity between the way
some people may "enjoy" it. (I wonder if anybody
flies economy and sleeps in a hostel?) But,
life's only as good as you live it. You and me
Jeff, I think we understand that Andy was just
venting, even though we agree he was wrong. Every
one's here for the reading, not the hard
feelings.
I second (or whatever it is that I'm doing),
Jeff's call for recognition of the ill-favoured,
and misbegotten nature of Andy's last email to the
List. I am calling for Andy to apologize for
making me laugh, and offending certain other
unnamed individuals. Andy, please consider
retracting your rather shocking and ill-considered
remarks, and offering apologies for your actions.
Earnestly,
