Sometimes, you just have to wonder at human beings ...

Quote:
Despite anger and frustration, the passengers stuck overnight Friday aboard a packed 50-seat jet on the tarmac at the Rochester, Minn., airport didn't revolt. They didn't even ask to get off the plane.
"Everybody was tired and wiped out, and nobody spoke up," says Link Christin, a passenger who says he felt "imprisoned" for 5½ hours on Continental Express Flight 2816. "I wish I would have been cogent enough to go to a flight attendant and say we need to go into the terminal for chairs, light, food and drink."
Source is here. There's a short sidebar video at the link from another flight that sat on the tarmac with no air. Infants, old people, hours, summer heat, no air. Can't wait to see it, right?
