hmm....interesting. and i checked it, and it appears to be true (you can find multiple newspaper articles about him, and snopes says it's true as well).

amazing......hell, i start getting irritable if my flights are delayed an hour, never mind 13 years.

weird weird story.

he's like a homeless person that everyone helps...but he has a place that he's away from the weather. he prolly has tv, he's eating ok, and knows the best time to use the restroom.

maybe they should make him a flat within the airport, and let peeps gawk n stuff...he's prolly a sort of tourist attraction by now anyways.

Well, some country should take him in. That's just sad.
