Too cool. I'm flying out to look at a big cruising boat in NC. There is a free trial for in flight wifi.
So howdy from 30,000 feet somewhere over the US.
BMILLER,
I,m out in the front yard waving - can you see me?
Safe flight.
Ron
I looked , it was overcast.
Maye on the return flight.
"30,000 feet" ? Wow that's like 5 1/3 miles high. Does that remind you of a Birds song? "Eight miles high, and when you come down..."
Engine power gets you altitude and vertical and horizontal stabs gets you speed. I lov's to fly.
skip.

Kind of amazing how radio transmitters and receivers cause interference with navigational equipment, until the airlines figure out that they can charge for wifi, then its all OK.
Good to hear you got the free trial.

Yep Curtis,
This country has definitely become one of "nickle and dime" the consumer to death. I guess if a company is too uninspired to offer outstanding products or services, they must rely on these petite charges to survive. Is this the death roll of a consumer economy, or will some inspired entrepreneurs shed the iron grip of big businesses and provide us with much needed new takes on consumables.
An acquaintance of mine once said that the ills of American business are the result of visionaries being replaced by bean counters. I believe he hit it right on the head there, but "too big to fail" unfortunately seems to also mean "too big to allow healthy competition from small businesses".
