Heightism is alive and well

This weekend I returned from a trip to Iowa and I went through the familiar routine of lowering my head to enter a plane and struggling to fit into a seat that was not meant for my 191 cm frame (for those of you too lazy to learn the metric system, that is 6ft 3inches). I often thought it would be funny if someone actually complained about this. In January of this year someone did. Malcolm Johnson, at 6ft 7inches needs his leg room and he filed a complaint against Air Canada citing discrimination in the 'extra leg room fees' they charged.
