>> The airlines are being real hard-nosed about letting me bring my car on with >> me. They say I have to buy another ticket for it. > > people laughed at me when i tried to board the plane with my house :) Although I haven't tried loading houses or cars onto aircraft, I can tell you that most airlines will allow you to carry one cat (under the seat in front of you), but NOT two: if you want to carry two cats you do in fact have to buy a another ticket for it!!! BTW if you want to take your wearable through the x-ray inspection at the airport, here's a tip. Disassemble the parts and put them in small static resistant bags, and place them next to a laptop in your suitcase. All the x-ray will see is a big black void where the laptop is. They will likely ask you to remove the laptop and fire it up, but they won't likely look in your bag at the wearable parts. I had my wearable in australia and did this, and since the flight homw was 13 hours, I assembled my wearable and used it on the plane. When I held my GPS antenna up to the aircraft window it read accurately a speed of 550 mph and altiutude of 35,000 feet! By the way GPS is "receive only" (not transmit) and cannot affect the aircraft nav systems, so don't flame me. I even showed my GPS in operation to both flight attendants and the pilot himself and they were not concerned ... -- Doug -- Subscription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with subject of "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" toWear-Hard Mailing List Archive (searchable): http://wearables.blu.org please, Please, *PLEASE* don't subscribe through a forward/false domain
