Janice,

I fly a bunch. You would probably not be surprised and the number of
eyes that are trained on any individual that is not snow white in
color before, during and after any flight. Eye contact only is often
exchanged between complete strangers as if to say, I have this one,
you keep an eye on that one.

If the security people are doing there job in keeping the big stuff on
the planes, the p***engers are keeping an eye out on the little stuff.

I feel completely safe in flying these days.
