Good morning Sylvia, here's a little travel advice...
I'm at the airport heading for Puerto Vallarta and ran across this little bit of advice for when travelling with an anoying seat companion:
If you are sitting next to someone who irritates you on a plane or train..
1. Quietly and calmly open up your laptop case.
2. Remove your laptop.
3. Turn it on.
4. Make sure the guy who won't leave you alone can see the screen.
5. Open this email.
6. Close your eyes and tilt your head up to the sky.
7. Then hit this link:

So, did it work for you, Charles, or were you quickly escorted off your flight? LOL

Fortunately my flight consisted mainly of retired gringachos and one old German!

I'm sorry that you can't open the file. Its really not much but it really struck me funny. The file is a black screen with red Arabic letters and a count down timer with big bold red letters that displays seconds, tenths and hundredths of seconds as it rapidly counts down from 10 seconds to zero! I suspect that if one actually ever did this on public transprotation there would be an awful mess to clean up and the perp would be rapidly shuttled off to jail for inciting a riot.
