Title Text:
My bold criticism might anger the hot air balloon people, which would be a real concern if any of them lived along a very narrow line directly upwind of me.

“Hot air balloons are the optimal mode of transportation, if your optimization algorithm has a sign error.”
Airliners should be below boats for convenience 😂 just because of airport security and bag collection...
Airplane least convenient for travel from bedroom to kitchen
Walking least convenient for travel to Antarctica
Iduno, travelling to Antarctica might be more difficult with skis than walking 😂
Oh, and because you have to get to the airport first with some other means of travel and then get to the terminal...
