So that's your definition of "this."  As you say, you have no need of something that my sister in Stavanger or colleagues in Angre dos Reos desperately need.

At the moment I am in the Vancouver airport.  It is one of the few that provides free Wifi.  (Works great, too.)  I'm fine.  Except for the fact that US Airways are clueless, their "checkin" function doesn't work, and even their "Contact US" (isn't that just too *cute*!) link is broken.  Right now, that is part of my critical infrastructure, even though the vast majority of the world (including, apparently, their own staff) doesn't particularly care.
