The new category I created 'Ask the Passenger' is an homage of sorts to Patrick Smith's column on Salon, Ask the Pilot. I have enjoyed reading his weekly Q&A for a few years now and snapped up his book when it first came out.

His most recent column talks about USA Today's new column 'Ask the Captain.' I am not linking to the USA Today column since it's a rip-off of Patrick's work, and his column is better :-)

I travel quite a bit so I will post some tid-bits here and there under this category.
