the last photo from doomed flight #96*

(*i worked on the t-mobile sidekick in a previous life ... as we were going through development, people with prototypes would always post "the last photo from doomed flight _____" from their 'blogs.  it was a joke, both in that goofy spooky prescient way, but more against the media that seem to always use the term "doomed" to describe aircraft disasters [implying that the powers that be somehow knew it ahead of time]. i was deeply embroiled in the management of development at the time and could never travel -- leaving me out in the cold for the posting game. this title, and all that follow over the many days, is dedicated to those great folks i worked with [nearly all of whom are now working on android and the google phones]. ficus, et al, i salute you and everything you've ever stood for).
