8/25    My theory on the two Russian planes:  Rogue luggage handler, loaded
        up both planes with cell-phone bombs.  Called cell-phone bombs ~ 11pm.
        I don't buy simultaneous equipment failure.
        \_  WWIII and vodka
        \_ Asked airport for altitude of ground, airport gave them the wrong
           number.
           \_ You mean altitude of the airport?  How's that relevant?
              \_ He means altitude of the ground below the plane.
        \_ I believe the word you're looking for is "hypothesis."
           \_ I believe the term you want is Crackpot Wingnut Conspiracy Theory
              \_ That's Crackpot Wingnut Conspiracy HYPOTHESIS
           \_ Take more English 1A, less CS.  Thanks.
        \_ Your theory assumes Russia has good cell phone coverage. -- misha.
           \_ D'oh!
        \_ Cell phones have alarm functions.  No need to call.
           \_ Then why not just an alarm clock trigger.
           \_ You're right, that was used in the Spain bombings.
