Journal Entry 1 by mojosmom from Chicago, Illinois USA on Monday, June 23, 2003
This is a collection of articles that originally appeared in The Observer. Says James: "My ambition for this book, while I was writing it, was for it to be sold from the book stall at the airport. Unashabedly in love with air travel, I wanted nothing more than to be the perpetrator of the kind of artefact which people bought just before they got on the plane."

This is the edition that Virgin Airways handed out to passengers!

Once I've read this, I will try to find a reasonably safe spot at an airport/in a plane to release it, consonant with the author's desire.

Released on Tuesday, July 29, 2003 at Midway Airport in Chicago, Illinois USA.

On Continental Flight 2525 from Cleveland, in the seat back pocket, seat 10A

I read some of this while visiting my sister, the rest at the airport and on the flight home. The articles were all written in the mid- to late-70's, which made them very interesting indeed.
