you are absolutely right, Tom, and I just hope that you would keep it
that way! but I am increasingly worried.
While I second everything you say about aviation, I see it
differently for the rest of the daily life. The "Patriot Act" has
turned "the land of the free" into "the land of the suspect". The
TFRs are not merely a nuisance - they are a symptom. I think you
should all remember Ben Franklins wisdom: "They that can give up
essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither
liberty nor safety."
Sorry for being blunt; I just happen to love your country too much to shut up.
Best
Simon
