While the repeal of Prohibition did result in days of party binging at
certain air-themed motels and Air Venture campsites, would you
characterize that as Matrix-like?

"Binging"? Please.

One of the reasons we like pilots as our "target market" is that they
cannot be alcoholics or binge drinkers and long maintain their
privileges as airmen.

This makes it easy for us to lend them our courtesy van, and rent them
suites with thousands of dollars in artwork and memorabilia in them,
since we *know* they aren't going to get snockered and tear the place
apart, or wrap the van around a pole.

This is NOT true of our non-pilot crowd, BTW, and it's something we
monitor quite closely. (It's also why we never, EVER lend our van to
non-pilots, under ANY circumstances.) Over the years we've had a few
incidents with guests who have drank themselves into a stupor, and
it's never fun to deal with -- but these have NEVER been pilots.
