Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
But the documentary was really convincing. They used phrases like "it was reported" and "some have theorized" without ever saying what the sources were of the info and theories. So that means they're really confident in their sources, right?

Throw in Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale and I'm sold.

or e) if you get trapped on the runway at O'Hare, it's much more pleasant to be trapped in first class.
Ooh, good one!
f) all of the above
I'll go with f -- my limited experience with first class upgrades says that you arrive in much better shape, muscle-wise and mental-wise. I suspect the air is better in that part of the cabin, too.
(That doesn't stop me from hating the people sprawled in first class as I make my way back to the cattle pens, though. I always feel like announcing loudly that the first ten rows in the aircraft have the lowest survival rates in crashes.)
Yesterday, I found out that Kickass Cupcakes bakes a batch of vegan cupcakes every day! I foresee more frequent expeditions to Davis Square in my future, also because When Pigs Fly has opened a bakery outlet practically next door....
