That would solve the age old dilemma of "how to fly and eat popcorn at the same time?"

Technology rocks!

They actually solved that a long time ago by creating the First Officer position - his real job is to throw the popcorn for the pilot in command!

What they really need to work on is a machine that throws burgers for Cadez!

I get emails all the time that are about some fake thing.
For example a guy sent me one the other day about some dude in India who claimed to not eat or drink for the last 70 years.

Without doing any research at all you know he is a fake and a liar, not even worth talking about it.

Another example, there was a story in the paper last week about bees in France making coloured honey because they ate some sort of waste from an M&Ms factory.
There is a story about it here:

My B.S. meter smells fake on that one, time will tell. :)
