Let me tell you, I was in Toldeo for the big Weak Signals show recently. Before going to sleep in my hotel room I was channel surfing, and on the 11:00 o'clock news I hit a big headline piece "Toys or Terrorists" (!!)

Seriously, the piece went on for about 10 minutes, with a lot of shots in the background of the indoor flying at Toledo, meanwhile the voice over, and everyone they interviewed were answering the question about terrorism. Mealy, a couple of reps (Barbee?) some other guys were all trying to explain the safety and lack of terrorist potential for our hobby...very disheartening.

Their position was that the RC community is very tight, and that if anyone tried to use our technology for "evil" they would be found out and reported. Not as much that the equipment could not be used mind you, just that we would all catch it before it was too late.

Sobering
