Most of my flying is international. No matter what, I only take wha' I wear, then 3 more days (3 shirts, 3 underwear each, 3 socks, and only 2 more pants. Done.) in me luggage. Hey, ye have to do laundry! Simple - just don't take enough to last the entire trip without having to have laundry done.

Exactly, but then I have a backpack with all the electronics, close to 50 lbs. I all years of flying I never had my carryon weighted.
OTOH I was pulled out of line in a Chinese railroad station and given a pink slip for overweight luggage, a carry on and a backpack, weighted together, while being passed by passengers towing suitcases size of a sauna....
