Waving The Bloody Flag

Meat-space acquaintance (Don't hold it against him!) Weldon Berger doesn't type for public consumption often enough; when he does it's well worth it.

It was a distant disaster. Not so for everyone, of course, but for a lot of people. I remember reading a letter to the editor of the Honolulu Star-Bulletin from a woman, I think from Michigan, who had been forced to overstay her Hawaii vacation while the flights were grounded. She was resentful because so many businesses in Waikiki weren’t flying American flags in the tragedy’s wake.
