While I don't understand the airline business or its problems, I see them doing small things wrong that I do understand. It makes me suspicious of the intelligence they use with their major problems. One airline I have used frequently proudly serves "warm nuts." I am sitting strapped to my seat, a captive audience seething at being forced to listen to the commercials over the intercom after paying a fortune for my ticket, when a flight attendant offers "warm nuts." What food expert at the airline's home office decided warm nuts were a good idea?
