The LiveJournal article hijacked the back button, so that instead of returning me to HN it jumped to a random spot in the article. I had to long-press the back button to get back to HN. This on Firefox Mobile on Android with no adblockers.

I've long wondered if some people are sensitive to the fairly rapid change in oxygen levels (sea level to 8000 feet/2438m cabin altitude) on board an airliner. Might that constitute mild hypoxia or hypoxemia? Combine that with alc
