At least ONE stupid rule has been repealed

Electronics finally allowed on planes

The FAA is rolling back some of the restrictions on using electronic devices on an airplane. You still won't be able to use your cell phone to make calls (it's against FCC regulations) (why????) but you will be able to use your iPad, Kindle, and other devices during all stages of flight. Finally the FCC admits what everyone has always known: that playing Candy Crush will not affect the airplane!
