Becoming a member of the mile high club is a staple fantasy of virtually every frat boy in the nation. While the prospect of getting it on in a cramped, smelly airplane bathroom or underneath a dingy blanket on uncomfortable seats with an armrest up one's butt is hardly appealing for most air travelers, it has nevertheless not deterred many intrepid explorers from attaining this avionic sexual merit badge. But it seems that era may be coming to a close, with the federal government apparently cracking down on the more egregious attempts of people to enter into this exclusive organization.

This would seem to fall into the "don't they have anything better to do with their time?" category. Certainly even a ham sandwich can be indicted (which is where the case, U.S. v. Carl Warren Persing and Dawn Elizabeth Sewell, currently stands) but directing a US attorney to prosecute individuals who wouldn't stop making out when a flight attendant asked them and then tells the attendant to go away seems like a somewhat ridiculous usage of a law passed to ensure airline security.
