Here is my fantasy about the recent incident aboard the United Airlines plane. When the doctor (a.k.a. everyman) was singled out for removal against his will and against all notion of a rational universe, all of the other passengers, perhaps led at first by one brave soul, would have unbuckled their seat belts, rose as one and declared: "I am Spartacus!"
What if the "security" people had said: "Hey United, that's your problem. Sorry, not our job."
These fantasies have a tendency to go on and on, don't they?
I imagine if they were possessed by the spirit for that instant, in the next moment they might said (again in unison),"Who is Spartacus?" ��
