- This reminds me of a story told by a colleague of mine who was on an
- airplane one day seated next to someone whose native language was not
- American English.
- As the plane began its takeoff, the gentleman next to my colleague
- began pushing the flight attendant call button furiously, but since
- the flight attendants were all strapped in for takeoff, no one answered.
- Finally, when the plane reached sufficient altitude, one of the female
- flight attendants came down the aisle toward the gentleman, but he
- began shouting:
- "Lady! Lady! I have been fingering you for 10 minutes and you
- haven't come yet!"
