Don't know that this is such a good idea.

Last night I read an article in .risks about a newly common injury on
airplanes -- descriptions of victims concussed to the point of partial
one-side paralysis, etc., from being hit by portable computers
dropping out of the overhead bins.

I'm sure that even before the article, I wouldn't want to sit under one.
