Hee. Have had the opposite experience. I get up and people just crane their necks in astonishment, whoa...you just keep going. I'm high and short-waisted - which means all my height is in my legs. Basically four feet of legs and 1 foot, ll inches of torso. Makes it a pain to go to movie theaters and sit in roller-coasters. Also airplanes, ack. Most of my friends tend to be shorter.
