Jay,

Nice message.

But, despite your barb on the instrument pilot, you have to remember
that you are only half a pilot without the instrument rating.

Yeah, you could get the rating and make a stupid decision like the
real pilot in the story.

or.......you could get the rating and NOT make stupid decisions and
become a much better pilot than you were before you got the rating,
which is exactly what happens to all but those who are accidents waiting
to happen anyway :-)
