Dian-
My kids (17, 19, & 26) call me a geek, but I don't hold a candle to Greg! I
will show my kids the TechTrax article to let them know I could be MUCH
geekier. If only I had a wireless network, rather than a wired network at
home. Hmmm? ;)

LOL...funny you should mention that! No, Greg doesn't fly the big
planes...yet. He's a private pilot and isn't qualified to fly a
commercial jet, although he'd LOVE to and he's put enough of them back
together when he was an aircraft mechanic for the Air Force and worked
in search and recovery.
In fact, on that particular flight he WAS sitting back playing doom and
getting free drinks due to the delay...networking their laptops across
the seat with his former boss via wireless networks. Check out his
article about it!

Thanks! Actually I would have rather been sitting on the ground instead
of flying in circles! :-( Especially around O'Hara! I take it that he
did all the flying? I would have asked the other guy to fly (in circles)
while I was on my laptop playing Doom or something! (It'll keep my mind
occupied!) :-)
