thanks for realising i am from the uk yogi, quite the detective...

however, i have been living in jbg for the last 4 years and although i would not read a pornagraphic magazine onboard a plane, more out of embarressement than anything else, i would not have a problem with someone who felt comfortable enough to do so.

i agree that it is not proper, for want of a better word, to read such a magazine infront of a minor and i would hope that most, who would consider reading or looking at such material would have the politness to refrain while sitting next to children.

and, after reading the captains version of events, i agree completely with having the man removed, but not for reading the magazine, but for the agressive and abussive behaviour displayed towards a crew member, no problem with that at all.

i would also like to ask yogi, to explain his statement...

'Goes for you to South Coast but then again seeing as your location is the UK your comments dont surprise me in the least.....)'

was that supposed to mean we in the uk are not all christian fundamenatlists like some of you here, or maybe we are not quite as civilised as south africans, or maybe it was supposed to mean because you are SO civilised now, that you can decide properly for the masses what they should and should not read...almost sounds like a law from the past, but i forget what country that could have been a law in within the last 20 years...

i know a good quote, take out of it what you will...

only two things are infinite; the universe and mans' stupidity and i am not sure about the universe.
