Phil. I put this on the Airline list for you. Bob BOB FLETCHER US ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS Military Design Section, 10th Floor S.W. SACRAMENTO DISTRICT, SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA, 95814-2922 PH. (916) 557-7235 -----Original Message----- From: Phil McDonald [mailto:philipmcd@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, January 08, 2004 2:14 PM To: The Railroad List; Fletcher, Robert Subject: Re: toilet queues banned on flights to US We witnessed this toilet confusion flying from Cleveland to Sacramento the other day on Southwest. A number system like at the deli counter might help. It does get funny watching people jockey for position to get in there. Standing up, then sitting down cuz someone else further up in the plane has jumped up and scooted in. A nice trick is to wait until the flight attendants have the bevvy cart past you..they do a good job of blocking the aisle so you have an unobstructed stroll to the can. I'll be observing again this weekend on my way to Louisiana for a week. Another joyous six hours in the air, Sac to Denver, Denver to New Orleans, New Orleans to Shreveport.. Phil
