I'm 6 feet tall and I never found this to be a problem. People are describing this as the seat reclining into your lap. It does not such thing. The top of the seat comes back a few inches. The area opposite your knees hardly moves at all.

People need to lighten up. I want to recline my seat, especially in a long flight, and I have no problem with anyone else on the plane that wants to as well.

The seats were meant to recline. If this is going to continue to be a problem, airlines will begin replacing seats with the type that don't recline. How many people would prefer that on a six hour flight?
