I know about the incident in Alabama because I was there, at 300' AGL. There
weren't any NOTAMs. The ADULT chaperones weren't even aware that the green
field with the long strip of pavement surrounded by airplanes was an
airport.

Your organization provides excellent education to rocketeers, but it missed
these folks. Don't worry though- I educated them. However, being it was
Alabama, they didn't learn any new words from me.

As for the cartoon, well.....
I laughed at it. After reading your post, I realize I was ignorant. Please
forgive me. I have already contacted the Society Against the Tilted
Inexcusable Ridicule of Everyman and urged them to help others refrain from
spreading malicious rocketeer cartoons. Such cartoons only serve to give
license and comfort to those who pre-judge others on usenet posting
characteristics.

You're BAD, Capt. Doug! What is your expansion of SARCASM? :-)
