This is a really funny account of a flight attendant's nap in a plane's overhead rack. It's a short, light read, stuck between articles too serious and heavy to digest after 5.pm.

This article has a great lede, introductory paragraphs that I think every American can identify with, and presents a very interesting topic. The author makes the sciencey subject comprehensible to the layman, and in a lighthearted tone goes on to present data, cite examples and findings, and even delves into the social reception of the theory. It's a very good article. I was satisfied at the end of it, and there were no lingering questions in my mind.
