Good news for me:
Engineers at Chicago-based Boeing Co. used sacks of potatoes as stand-ins for passengers as they worked to eliminate weak spots in in-flight wireless signals. They needed full planes to get accurate results during signal testing, but they couldn't ask people to sit motionless for days while data was gathered.Being a quintessential potato couch and seeing how WiFi is helping me out in this important task, I can only say bravo to the tireless Boeing engineers.
They have even used my photo for illustration...

What? They couldn't find teenagers to hook up to a video game. They can sit in one position for days.
True, but potatoes are more disciplined and don't need infusions of soda and potato chips...
