    What I want to know is if the bag was stolen or Aer Lingus just figured 2 out of 3 bags was fine. Given their rep, 2 out of 3 was probably good enough and it was just sitting in a bin.

    A few years ago, my wife flew from Newark to Heathrow. Her bag didn't arrive with her. The airline had no idea where it was. When she got back to Newark, on a whim, she went up to the check-in counter to ask about it. They tried to put her off, at first, but she persisted. Lo and behold, it had been right there the whole bloody time.

    Consider this. If you were looking to spread your existence to other planets, what is more effective: Sending adults of your species to space in big, expensive, difficult to navigate and maintain rockets, or sending unborn members of your species in swarms of tiny, hardy, incredibly opportunistic spores?

    I don't think you could do that in modern gaming as the house can boot you out (and does) if you start to win even a moderate amount of money, at least that's what they do in USA I think.

    My UPS store told me the same thing. However they also said if I show them it was packed in the original box with the original packing material that would also be accepted and insurable.

    It just sounds scammy to me. I've had a similar problem before: Package shipped by UPS to me, try to ship it back in the same package was denied. FedEx gives me no problem. Maybe a local thing.

    Also, UPS stores won't ship items with declared value above (i think) $2000 - has to be shipped through a UPS regional distribution center.

    Nintendo Wii had something similar back in 2010 or so. Can't find the specific games now but it was basically a hat you put on with EEG sensors inside.
