Heard in the Bay Area yesterday:
BB: "Barnburner 123, Request 8300 feet."
Bay Approach: "Barnburner 123, say reason for requested altitude."
BB: "Because the last 2 times I've been at 8500, I've nearly been
run over by some bozo at 8500 feet going the wrong way!"
Bay: "That's a good reason. 8300 approved."
