Tell HN: Public apology to dcurtis

Yesterday, I jumped on dcurtis in his hn post "30-day flight" here...

I said it was foolish and selfish. I was wrong. It's neither. A little over the top, but that's all.

As a frequent flyer, I'm always concerned about being able to get the seats I need and not getting bumped, so maybe I was a little sensitive. Also, sometimes I double book, then cancel, to keep flexible plans and feel guilty about it. (So who am I to criticize?)

I talked with alaskamiller last night and he reminded me that this was a great chance for the 2 of them to have an adventure, learn a few things, and share their experience in their blog.

I just didn't read that it yesterday's post. I should have known better.

I look forward to seeing dcurtis and alaskamiller in Pittsburgh if we're there the same time. Other hn'ers may want to coordinate their schedules with them too. Who knows, buy them a drink or dinner and you may be the subject of a blog post.

Have fun and keep us posted.
