The flight was delayed by 14 hours, they rebooked as many they could, still had passengers, and flew the flight. Now the greenies are up in arms.

Had they canceled the flight, the people waiting for the plane there would have had their flight canceled, creating a ripple effect in the scheduling for at least a day or two.

I can guarantee that there was cargo on that plane that, coupled with the returning passengers, made the trip worth it.

Do they ignore parts of reality?

Yeah, canceling the flight would have been atrocious customer service...

A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?
