I have not read the whole thread. But I just had to add the tidbit that floored me a few years ago… at one of the elite school districts some parents hired a helicopter to take the kids to the prom. Evidentally a limo was not impressive enough. Gads.

(OK, I do like group transit options when the prom is far away. I gave my son the $55 for his ticket on a nice rented bus with 35 of his friends. It took them to dinner and then to the prom and back. But no limo. And definitely no helicopter!).
