Poop On a A Plane
Sewage Flows Down Aisles Of Trans-Atlantic Flight - http://www.king5.com/localnews/stories/NW_061907WAB_continental_sewage_flight_TP.1cc511cf.html

UNIVERSITY PLACE, Wash.– Passengers on a Continental Airlines flight had to hold their noses for hours as sewage overflowed from toilets while they were high over the Atlantic.

***

"I've never felt so offended in all my life. I felt like i had been physically abused and neglected. I was forced to sit next to human excrement for seven hours," said Brock.

That's after lavatories - in the middle of a flight filled with passengers - started spewing sewage.

***

He says was there was one partially-working restroom on the plane for the more than 200 people onboard. He also says the flight attendants - who were serving meal service in a stinky, unappetizing cabin - told everyone to not eat or drink too much.

*********************************************

One passenger is trying to organize the passengers for the purpose of legal action at the INContinental Airlines blog - http://pooponaplane.blogspot.com/

"On Wednesday June 13th, 168 people boarded Continental flight 71 from Amsterdam to Newark. Despite the fact that the flight was only scheduled to be 8 hours, it wasn't until 32 hours later that we arrived in New Jersey. What happened in between is a tale of massive mismanagement, awful customer service and downright inhumane, unsafe and unsanitary conditions. And yes, there was poop running down the aisles!"

4. There IS talk of a Bering Strait tunnel;
Then the problem would just be getting there. And then getting across Siberia.
