Why do you think it's so easy to get a driver's license? No politician wants to tell grandma that she can't have a driver's license anymore. JKG |

Since most folks drive, there isn't a push or desire to restrict THEIR
freedoms. Ah, the tyranny of the majority. It'll take real statesmen to save us from that. Why do you think it's so easy to get a driver's license? No politician wants to tell grandma that she can't have a driver's license anymore. I don't think you are, but let us all remember to not confuse a drivers *license* with a pilots *certificate*. The roads are owned (generally) by government - the skies are not. I don't want to see politicians think of airspace in the same way they think of road and rail travel. *shudder* |
