I think I'll come back out of lurking here......


This is a simple equation: if 1 seat = 1 ticket, and person = 2 seats, then s = t = 1/2p. For p to equal one, the equation must read 2s = 2t = p. When you multiply any one side of the equation, you must do it to all sides.

That is the way things work. I'm not getting into ethics here, because ethics don't apply here. If the person needs two seats, they need to pay for two seats. Period.
