Well, well, well… it looks like we have another airline adopting movie plot security tactics. From JetBlue’s page on service animals (emphasis added):
Certain unusual emotional support animals (i.e. snakes, other reptiles, ferrets,
rodents and spiders) pose unavoidable safety and/or public health concerns
and will not be allowed to jet with us. The release of such an animal in the
aircraft could result in a direct threat to the health or safety of customers and
crewmembers.
No word on whether they’ve hired Mr. Jackson as a consultant.

The rise of the [hamburger](http://hamburger.example.com/)
as a form of *currency* can be **attributed** to several
aspects of [Akkadian][akad] [civilization][civ].

Yes, the most delicious hamburger of all is not brown, but
green. The green of money. Denominations of hamburger
(and current value in USD:)
* 1/4-pounder ($3.79)
* Cuneiform, or "Cuney" ($8.00)
Problems with the currency:
1. Deflation due to hunger
2. Fraud (soy fillers)
3. Hamburgers not invented yet
