Medical Forum / General / Cardiology / December 2004was: Internationally Clueless About Obesity
And what about the American community? Have you ever taken a BOEING in economy class? BOEING does not solely cater to midgets. I'm sure the size of the seats was NOT dictated by the average American butt width, but by max.money thinking. Look around you, first, before talking about ignorance or refusal to acknowledge. >>Fat Americans, apparently, are "news" to the international community of >>manufacturers of chairs and fixtures. >>What? There are no American tourists in France? >>This is further confirmation of what I had feared. That the word on the >>inclining obesity of Americans (in particular) has, somehow, magically, >>been missed, ignored or refused to be acknowledged by much of America and, >>obviously, most of Europe. did u want me to answer the firs post or the third one? > And what about the American community?

How many BOEING seats have you seen collapse? Yes, you're right; I mistook human confort for product reliability, but it's all the same in the end; nobody really cares about how much you weigh, or how big your butt is, as long as minimal investment reaps maximum profits. Why bother using heavy-duty, more expensive seating on a cruise ship when the "average/normal" client won't have any problems (and if Americans are too fat, that's their problem)? That's practically the same reasoning used for the choice of BOEING's seating. I deliberately left out, for clarity's sake, the discussion about fat Australians and Nigerians.

First there are hundreds of varieties of seating choices on a cruise ship, only two or three on an aircraft. Their usages are entirely different. There is also a line where maximizing profits meets (contingent) liability. Lol That just proves that the French liner company is a hundred times more interested in satisfying non-average butts than BOEING. > The seating on a cruise ship is apples-oranges to an airplane seat.

Most commercial Boeing aircraft offer at least two sizes of seats. The larger seats are usually near the front of the aircraft. -- Jim Chinnis Warrenton, Virginia, USA >> The seating on a cruise ship is apples-oranges to an airplane seat.

Dood, the QM2 is owned by Carnival (CCL) an American company. Lol So it was an American company that put those cheap chairs on that boat? I beleive that takes care of your original post, doesn't it >>>Fat Americans, apparently, are "news" to the international community of >>>manufacturers of chairs and fixtures. > Dood, the QM2 is owned by Carnival (CCL) an American company. Internationally Clueless About Obesity; waht about this title means "Americans only"? > Lol > So it was an American company that put those cheap chairs on that boat?
