Actually David, they are talking about allowing cell service on flights. But they will do the old not until we are at 10K ft, and no more when we are about to land. [Link: upi.com]
Yeah, lighten up, David! I was reporting on something I just heard; you were commenting on something that has been going on for a while, so you should have realized maybe what I heard today was not old news.

Edit: shoot, the cackling idiots in the PIP cut the video at the best part. I tried to find the original clip, it used to be all over, but no doubt the idiot network issued takedown notices because of course it would be horribly dangerous to allow a famous 3-minute clip from a 10 year old episode of Conan to be on youtube,
Since it's not there, you could not leave us in suspenders and you could describe to us what it's about.......

He talks about how spoiled we all are today. He talks about how now we get irritated when we can't get on the Internet on a plane, or a flight gets delayed 30 minutes. He then talks about how 200 years ago when people wanted to travel from one side of the country to the other, it took 6 months and half the traveling party was dead by the time they reach the other side. It's a funny routine called "everything is amazing and no one is happy". I always remind myself of it when I start to get irritated flying - "200 years ago it took 6 months and half the people died".
Audiophiliac saying we need faster planes made me think of the skit.

BTW, here is what is driving this insanity. Cell phone companies and airlines want to make more money and they couldn't care less how miserable they make other passengers.
