I am not sure how to say this tactfully and it will come out wrong I'm sure. I want it known up front I have no prejudices against anyone.

To expand a bit on Jim's thoughts on evacuations in a time regulated by the FAA. As someone who has personally lifted people from their wheelchair into their seat and from chair to aislechair and moved them on the plane then from aislechair to seat, these folks would have ZERO chance in evacuating an aircraft in an emergency, much less in a regulated amount of time. I don't know who is fooling who here but it just wouldn't happen. Maybe they should all be seated up front close to an exit just for this reason alone. My head hurts......think I'll have a beer.
