Finally. Can't wait for this to percolate MT @nickbilton FAA nears change in rule for gadgets during taxi & takeoff http://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/23/technology/faa-nears-new-rules-on-devices.html …
@alexroupakia science doesn't work that way. No solid proof of hypotheses against a slew of things not banned during flight. Yet.

@asteris until you prove a hypothesis is not correct do you really want to take the risk? -
@alexroupakia that's exactly what I mean by superstition. Maybe I shouldn't carry anything with the number 13 on me. Or sneeze on my lap. -
@asteris Hypotheses doesn't necessarily mean superstition. -
@alexroupakia unproven hypotheses made policy constitute superstitious policy. Read Bilton's coverage, please, this is going in circles -
@asteris It is rather patronising assuming I have not read the article. I have just happened to read other sources too. -
@alexroupakia as you will. No point in discussing it, you're set on your rationale which mirrors standing airline policy, no explanation

@asteris I agree with your point, but then there's the hundreds of souls onboard an aircraft that you have to take into account. -
@alexroupakia respectfully, I won't even deign to respond to this. -
@asteris Fair enough
