God bless the USA. For once, the U.S. government is outregulating those silly-socialist Eurocrats. While our laws continue to forbid mobile phone calls from airplanes — despite the fact there's no safety reason to so — the EU is about to let the airlines decide for themselves. Letting the market decide what to do? Euroblasphemy. Airlines have also let the market decide to crush airline passengers' will to live with delays, cramped seats and prices. That next trip to the Valley? So cancelled. The thought of hearing you wantrepreneurs rehearsing your VC pitch nonstop for five hours makes me want to slit my carpal-tunneled wrists.
