Flyin’ days are over for us. No need.

Why do people who "have no dog in the fight" always feel compelled to chime in and boast "we have no dog in the fight?"

Regards,

I'd debate this with you, but I have no dog in this fight.

Everyone has a dog in this fight. I can’t afford to fly but see this as the beginnings of acceptance to this privacy invading tech. We don’t get a cell signal at home or in most places here in hill country. I don’t need a cell phone but it seems like I may be forced to get one someday for some necessary app that works as a high tech ID.
