Just a quick word here about sitting on airplanes. I do not want to sit in an exit aisle. The reason for this is that I am totally blind. I am not equipped physically to aid other passengers to exit the airplane effeciently and safely, should the need arise. I do not want to be responsible for somebldy's death if my inability to see makes it slower or more difficult for people to exit a crashed plane. For god's sake people, THINK!!!!!! I know what my limitations are. I don't pretend that I can do all things. Sorry, soap box mode off. See you on-line.
