  ALthough I as it seems did you find ANdy's comments
amusing in some aspects (I laughed aloud when I read them
as well) the DNSO has a set of list rules which if they are
to be effective and carry any credence, than they must be
observed by all equally and the consequences of flaunting
them must also be borne by those abusing or otherwise
violating them, applied equally as well.

  I agree that no one should take anything said or
posted in any forum in a personal way unless it is obviously
stated as such.  I believe given the verbiage that Andy used
the personal aspect was clear.

of other airports where such a survey might be interesting
an useful...  >;)
