Talk about getting subjects wrong! They weren't Aeroflot flight
attendants.


They weren't? Then why does the article say "Two crew members on a
domestic Aeroflot flight beat up a passenger who had complained that the
flight attendants were drunk, airline spokeswoman Irina Dannenberg said."?

That one sentence confirms that they were on an Aeroflot flight, and that
the people doing the assault were flight attendants. That makes them
"Aeroflot flight attendants" by any definition of the word. Yes, they
were subcontracted from another airline, but as long as it's an Aeroflot
flight, they're Aeroflot flight attendants.

I use shell scripts at ork. Some cow-orkers refuse to touch them, their
excuse is usually "I don't understand perl". Their fear of perl is such
that all things unknown are also perl. -- Andrew Dalgleish
