This is a nice example of why pinback buttons fall under the heading of ephemera.  Who (well, besides me) would have held onto this teasing question from officials at Raleigh-Durham International Airport after they added an American Airlines flight to Paris in 1988 — a direct connection then lacking at Charlotte/Douglas International.

American dropped the Paris flight in 1994 and shut its RDU hub a year later.
