    It was on the news that Pets Plus in Northeast Philly got remains of a Human instead of their tropical fish order. The box was about 8 ft long.
    US Airways made the mistake. Hope they get their money back for their Tropical fish order that's most likely going to also be dead when it does arrive.

    I saw that on the news. The owner went to pick up his shipment but didn't have his ID with him so they wouldn't give it to him. He told them what it was and that they may die but they couldn't do anything about it because of their policies. He later on sent his father(?) to pick up the shipment. He went and got it, but he thought it was the wrong package because he was supposed to pick up 3 boxes but only the 1 really heavy box. USairways apologized and I believe are rectifying the situation.

    How in the heck can you explain a mistake like that???? I can't even imagine the look on the guys face when he was expecting fish.

    How would you like to be the grieving relatives that were expecting the deceased and got fish instead?? (I'm sorry, but that's funny...)

    Actually, the dead guy's wife donated his body to science. So it was on the way to a research lab someplace around Philadelphia.
