To me, it seems like your response is a case of way overthinking the topic. Trecile, in my opinion, was simply offering a light and even fun topic for discussion. I doubt that the topic could or would result in discrmination any more than would a discussion about whether one uses the term...
I second all of the above. Do not skimp on your travel insurance selection! My wife and I visited Switzerland recently. Two days before our scheduled return, she came down with a serious case of pneumonia. She had to be transported to the hospital by ambulance where she was hospitalized for...

Another thought. If you keep your passport in a bank safe deposit box, don't wait until the last minute or even last day to retrieve it. A number of bank lobbies are no longer open on Saturdays and you would be in major trouble with a Saturday or Sunday flight. Also, as I was waiting to have...
