@kepler11:
That would be a brilliant solution, if it weren't so stupid. A little empathy goes a long way.

Also, typo in the title (it's "publicity").

Okay, seriously - it's probably about as secure as the wifi at a Starbucks. You never know if there's some douchebag on the wireless trying to hack other people's machines. If you don't know the network, don't assume that it's safe.

I'm not saying that you shouldn't use any sort of public wifi, I would just make sure that you practice good security practices. Have a good firewall installed, don't be sharing any files/folders publicly, stuff like that.

I need to get down to a Brewers game sometime this summer...

@triscuitbiscuit: Why would it be a security risk to stay on a plane for 30 days? Is he going to magically produce a bomb from nowhere? If he didn't bring anything dangerous on the plane and all the other passengers are screened so they can't bring anything dangerous on the plane, how does simply being on it for longer hurt anything?

This isn't going to turn out pleasant. Image being sealed in a plane overnight -- no electricity, no temperature control, no way out. This guy is doing to lose it at some point.

I guess the economy hits everyone hard, even the comedians.

What I don't understand is after 28 days, the guy gets on his next flight and what..?
The plane evacuates because of the smell this man has developed in the past 4 weeks. All I know is that after 12-hours in an airplane, I feel absolutely filthy and while I'm not sure (since my sense of smell has been destroyed by the flight) but most likely the smell coming from yours truly isn't very pretty.

Plus I wouldnt want to sit next to this guy.

I guess it's different when he's getting paid by the airline.
