Well, as the original perpetrator on Rumors and then it was switched to Miscellaneous matters, I'm still much alive and I appreciate you guys carrying on this thread.
How to move the PAX? I know that BA has a program that no single male PAX is allowed to sit next to an unaccompaied child. But then again, I read in your above postings that in some cases women are not much better.
I tend to disagree with the woman bashers. There may be deep psychological problems why they kill their children, but I think that sexual perversion has been, on the whole, more associated with men. Pardon the expression, but I think that men get more of a hard-on than women get a G-spot erection.
Even after my original posting on this subject there were several replies that this kind of thing happens occasionaly on aircraft. After going through some search engines, I was surprised that it happens more often than not.
So what do we do about it? We don't want Dr. Kevorkian's lawyer to sue NW for $20+ million or so, unless the passenger next to the girl was actually a perp.
Actually, I also don't agree with the defendant's statement that TWICE he had to hold he girl's upper thigh to calm her down because of air turbulence. As I explained in the other site, my first reaction would be to hold her shoulder and then her hand -- if asked.
I think that this court case, if it comes to that, will be a major guideline for airlines.
