re: If you recline your economy airline seat = bad person

As a tall person, I humbly ask those adamant on reclining to at least take a glance behind you to make sure some poor soul at least has the room for the seat to recline without contact. I've been on a plane where my feet would have been off the ground if I couldn't put them in the aisle.

I pay extra for early bird boarding on southwest, or an assigned exit row seat on other planes, but sometimes its not an option.
