I wonder if some of the HSA people saw posts similar to the model B-52 posts that
were going around in this group recently and took some of the humorous comments
seriously.

I hope that someone is thinking about what can be done with RPVs.

I know that the Academy of Model Aeronautics is worried about them.

I hope that some resolution can be reached that will allow the
innocent to continue enjoying a great hobby while the guilty are
detected and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

One non-religious Muslim in our group has already been visited
by the FBI. It was a cordial visit spurred by Erol's purchase of
two quarts of hydrochloric acid from an auto store (if I remember
correctly). They were on his doorstep later that day. He was
using the acid to anodize some aluminum parts. He answered
the door wearing a T-shirt with some nuclear symbols on it
from his day job at a nuclear research center. I imagine it was
a little tense at first, but he's laughing about it now.
