All of us, at one time or another, have suffered through the inconvenience of the security check- in line - belts and shoes off and a gentle pat down. Passengers with disabilities are ushered through express gates in their wheelchairs. A request for a wheel chair is granted without a "show cause." Some airline folks have noticed that when the lines grow long there is an increase in requests for wheelchairs. A case in point was a flight where six wheelchairs appeared at the departure gate. It was said that the airline wires ahead so that six "chairs" are provided at destination. On this flight two of the six remained unused at destination ramp so it would appear that several miracles occurred in the rarefied air at thirty thousand feet. The truth is that selfishness lives on in our society.
