My daughter, the flight attendent, probably reads your People.

At airports, I check the monitors for a departing flight, go to that gate, and pick up a free copy of the latest newspaper. Sure, I'm cheap. So cheap, I wish I had a nickel for every time I've done that. When I leave, the newspaper is left on the seat for the next cheapskate. I believe in recycling everything but my money.
