    I don't know if you guys like Tony Kornheiser (from PTI on ESPN...), but he has a radio show here in DC. The show is on a radio station operated by the Wash. Post. Kornheiser really hates riding on airplanes. He went on a rant today about how this was about the dumbest thing he had ever heard of. I hadn't seen the article and certainly didn't know the Smugmug connection. Must be pretty cool to be ranted about by "Mr. Tony"...
    Regards

    Will

    What is this digging of articles? People tell me to digg articles, I have no idea what that is.
