       | connectivity where a Google Doc can actually load.

       | I happened to take a JSX flight from Seattles Boeing Field to
       | Oakland maybe two years ago and it was a really enjoyable
       | experience.
       | 
       | The terminal at Boeing Field is a sort of old historic building
       | and it was set up such that you essentially walked in, checked in
       | at a small counter and then walked out the back door to board the
       | plane that was sitting outside on the tarmac.
       | 
       | The ride was smooth and overall I'd do it again except that they
       | later cancelled that route.
