Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport offers free wireless Internet access in addition to having abundant power outlets scattered throughout the waiting areas (at least in Terminal 2). As with most such networks, users must accept the terms of service before gaining access to the Internet, via a page that looks like this:

Anybody else pause at that first question? It reads:
How Friendly is Phoenix Sky Harbor today?
The possible responses are:
America’s Friendliest
Very Friendly
Friendly
Not Friendly
For the record, it was very friendly. I can’t in good conscious declare it “America’s Friendliest” having not yet visited many of our nation’s major airports.
Sounds like Sky Harbor Airport needs some reassurance: “It’s smart enough, good enough and — doggone it! — people like it.” But that should be no surprise for a “Harbor” that’s in the middle of a desert. “Dude, where’s the water?”
Uhh… it’s a sky harbor? Duh! It’s a place for wayward airships to dock for the night, letting their weary crews sample the fine wares and sleep in the quaint inns of the port town adjacent.
