Be careful. Some counties, like the one I live in, are "zero-tolerance." There is NO legal BAC. Which means that even one beer, regardless of the effects on your driving, count as a DUI. So, did you think I was posting from my car? No, no, don't get me wrong, I'm still bitter about a situation I had some time ago. Let me get this straight: You have NO legal blood alchohol level where you live? A glass of wine with dinner is now completely illegal in your county? That's sickening. Don't forget stupid, ****ed up, stupid. They even changed the name of the charge to DUII from DWI because it's now "Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants" rather than "Driving While Intoxicated" because the "0.08" doesn't count here. Yes, cold medicines count. But think about it. Someone ****es you off, all you have to do is follow them around a little while, witness them having A beer somewhere and getting in their car. A simple cell phone call later and you don't even have to be at the arrest because the cops will take them in and breathalyzer them. Could ruin an ATP dream. Or put it off for a very long time. |

Smokers should be driven out not because it harms them to smoke (if you want to hurt yourself, be my guest) but because it fouls the air for other people for days. I haven't smoked in a long time, so I'm not upset that the laws supposedly protect me from second-hand smoke, but I think they've taken it too far in many areas. In Seattle, for example, you are not allowed to smoke within 25' of a building. I think that's ridiculous. 25' of a door or a window that opens. Stupid. |

Just like a SFB jackbooted thug to tell someone how to live on THEIR property. I haven't smoked in a long time, so I'm not upset that the laws supposedly protect me from second-hand smoke, but I think they've taken it too far in many areas. You do know that the "studies" about second-hand smoke were completely bogus, dont you? In Seattle, for example, you are not allowed to smoke within 25' of a building. I think that's ridiculous. 25' of a door or a window that opens. Stupid. What are those thugs smoking? |

In New York, they have made it impossible to smoke at any restaurant or Bar. I think that's also ridiculous. The law should require some sort of signage on the restaurant to indicate that is a smoking establishment, and if you don't like smoke, you don't go there... If there is concern that all restaurants would choose to be smoking restaurants (which they wouldn't) they could put an incentive in for restaurants and bars that completely smoke free. If a man owns a small business, he can't smoke in his office, even if he's the only one there. I say let him smoke if he takes the necessary precautions to prevent his smoke from venting into the rest of the building. The laws for asbestos are less rigid than the laws for cigarrete smoke. I love Paris. People smoke everywhere. No one complains. I don't smoke anymore but...jesus cut the crappy state-control-of-every- friggin' thing. For those who do smoke, I encourage you to stop. If you were able to look inside yourselves (I occasionally look inside many of you) you'd be horrified to see what's goin' on. Keep trying. It is possible. -- Message posted via AviationKB.com http://www.aviationkb.com/Uwe/Forums...ation/200706/1 |

Just some things may not get completely repaired. Sadly, for some it might never get better.

I agree that talking about beer is preferable to inane questions about mythological autopilots, and much more fun. If my mythological autopilot drinks an aviation themed beer in a county that outlaws driving while smoking, how long do I have to wait before it can fly a coordinated turn? -m -- ## Mark T.
