  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

That's what's changed. Before, a hijacking meant a free trip to south America or Cuba. Now it means you're likely to die if you don't stop the hijackers. A planeful of pissed off passengers determined to live are gonna stop a would-be hijacker.
