what if, what if, what if. What if you drove out of your driveway one morning and a garbage truck doesn't see you and you don't see him....what if. I'm sure the Taliban will be using Phantoms instead of the RPG Launches and guided missiles they already have. What happens when that pot finding copter that the National Guard uses, looses control and slams into my house at 500 feet? Ehh?
