On the way here, the flight attendant insisted that I turn off my Palm Pilot.
Do they make people turn off hearing aids?
And, if they do, how do they tell them it's OK to turn them back on? :-)
(The difference, of course, is that there's no Hearing Aid VII, with a wireless
connection to let you listen to Web pages or something...yet. The flight
attendants can't keep up with the tech; and better for them to err on the side
of caution. The remaining question, of course, is how come the airplane
manufacturers can't build a plane to resist this interference. You'd think
they'd be interested in the liability benefits, if nothing else. :-)
