Passenger feedback

OK, I regret having to do this but here is an extract from a passengers letter to a well known organisation trying to get at the truth of contaminated air.
Dear Sir,
I came across your site and information by accident.
I travel weekly to and from EEEEEEE, using BBBBBBB International as my access point. During the course of my flights, I became aware earlier this year of numbness in hands and feet (during flights), irritation of the eyes and sneezing (immediately post-flight) and chronic on-going tiredness. I started to keep some notes of flights and symptoms since, unscientifically, it struck me that there may be a connection.
That said, I am still concerned enough to have now consulted my GP who is referring me for blood tests.
Having read your information however, I am interested to know whether this experience is similar to that quoted by other individuals and would be happy to offer to be included in any data sample.

So as you can see, as passengers get wise to the symptoms they begin to ask questions and I guess that is the point at which airlines will begin to listen a bit more carefully to the evidence and facts of the matter.
It's long overdue.
DB
