Re: [Ai] Kindle for PC

[Bharat via Ai]

Hi,

The kindle for PC doesn't really have a serial number. However, every
Kindle book does. Every bpook has a unique serial number & the
utilities to bypass Kindle restrictions use this serial number
todecrypt the book. Once decrypted, the book can be converted to
alternate formats etc.

hope that helps.

[Ai] London: Disabled passengers 'forced to wait hours to disembark at Heathrow'

[avinash shahi via Ai]

Disabled passengers arriving at Heathrow airport are being forced to
wait up to two hours for help in disembarking aircraft, the aviation
regulator has said.

The west London hub is one of four airports where the Civil Aviation
Authority judged the service for wheelchair users and other disabled
passengers to be poor . The others were Manchester, East Midlands and
Exeter.

A survey of almost 1,200 passengers who have used Heathrow’s
assistance service found that 62% rated it as poor or very poor.

The CAA recorded instances of passengers not being met on board
arriving aircraft and not being treated with dignity and respect. On
some occasions passengers were encouraged to make their own way
through the airport because of a lack of staff or equipment

The CAA’s consumer enforcement manager, James Fremantle, said: “There
have been a number of occasions where people have had to wait one to
two hours on arrival at the airport. Our view is … disabled passengers
shouldn’t wait any longer than other passengers.”

More than a million passengers requiring special assistance travel
through Heathrow each year – more than any other European airport. Its
assistance service is provided by the US-based firm OmniServ

The executive director of the Equality and Human Rights Commission,
Melanie Field, said: “For disabled passengers to be treated as
second-class citizens and having to wait hours to leave a plane is not
only bad service, it is discriminatory.
“Being able to travel independently and safely is one of the biggest
concerns for disabled people. Our airports are often the first
impression travellers have of our country. They must improve their
service.”
