Qantas ended up putting my luggage in a taxi back to me maybe a day
after my last post, so thanks QF. (Wasn't your screwup).
Bag arrived with all of my stuff still in it, including DVDs, and TSA
had repacked neatly. Can't complain at this point.
I have an iPod touch case (The Ultimate Case, possibly,
pda/wallet-style) that is biding its time at the local Fedex center with
a status of "Package not due for delivery". A week without my good jeans
has given me the correct perspective on such things, and at least I know
where it is.
