This is interesting — via USA Today, 12/29/05:
A California man who was a passenger on the Alaska Airlines flight thatlost cabin pressure earlier this week is now being both praised andscorned online for taking photographs and posting an account on hisblog.
Here's the blog.
I have to admit, whenever something interesting happens to me — something that other people might find interesting — I take photos, if possible, and blog it. I get where this guy's coming from. I think every reporter does.
