I often wondered about that "X" also.. what does it stand for?

International.


cant be. anchorage has an international airport and its code is ANC, same with honolulu, HNL. lannion, france uses the airport code LAI, though i dont know which airport came to be first. as for the most annoying thing in the world...drivers with better things to do.

LAX is just part of the LEXicon being from California...

What really annoys me is babies on the beach....never worked a day in their life, and the feeling of entitlement to be ON VACATION??? *kicks sand*

You know what really bugs me? People who refer to Los Angeles International Airport as "LAX." "International" does not start with "X." "International" starts with "I." It's not "Los Angeles Xinternational Airport," is it?

From now on, it should be called "LAI." There are already too many people in the world who don't know the difference between "X" and "I" and half of those people are going to have to use Roman numerals someday.


Lex, let me introduce you to Michael who wants to kill people when they say "ATM Machine" and such or an the old dot matrix printer insisted "FF" was "Fast Forward" and not "Form Feed".

Los Angeles International Airport is most often referred to by its

IATA airport code LAX,

with the letters pronounced individually (el-ay-ex).

There is only one god, which is the father, the son and the holy spirit.

(From my grade school days in Hungary) We kids used to mock our teachers with this wordage: "When you are talking to me, stand in attention and keep your mouth shut!!"

Let's fight for peace!!

Less students are applying to Universities any more. (Two problems.)

Let's not worry about anything other than the economy.
