JM Keynes called. He'd like a word.

Even in the boom years heathrow could cope with the
passenger numbers so why build a new runway now when they're
dropping?? Its like saying "oh , theres less traffic on the roads -
lets build some bypasses!"

Have you ever been to Heathrow? The suggestion that it's been able to
cope with passenger numbers at *any* point in the last 25 years is,
erm, counter-intuitive.
