Being a tall or big guy does not have many advantages that everyone thinks it does. Sure, I can reach the higher cupboards in my house, but I have to duck through doors or under light fixtures (and don't get me started on ceiling fans). I admit I did buy a more expensive car to fit into (not a fan of smaller cars anyway).
So, for you "shorties" out there, go ahead and revel in the fact that you can sit comfortably in that economy seat. But if you're wondering why it won't recline, that's me with my knees against the seatback saying, "Sorry, you're just going to have to sit upright for the next 8 hours. If you want to recline, go lie in the aisle..."
Life isn't always fair, this I know... So instead of making it fairer for everyone, shall we go ahead and make it UN-fairer for everyone?
Hmmm... Let's marinate on THAT for a while.
