Though not quite rivalling the nostaligc value of catching this star-studded film (http://imdb.com/title/tt0112040/) on late night TV -and staying up until 2:30 in the morning with my mom because, dammit, we invested 3 hours already, and we're going to finish watching it- the book is frightening enough to make me like traveling by air even less. Though my chief fear in the realm of non-ground transport will still be sitting next to a particularly large and/or smelly individual, flying through aurora borealis and inadvertantly landing in Yesterday, just before it get's eaten by creatures resembling Mario's chain-chomps is certainly the #2 fear now.
