Default RE: A WAKE-UP Call

TFR are issued for good reasons - generally. I've seen some that have made me raise my eyebrows, and some that just don't make sense. I think the folks who tell the FAA what to issue tend to go a bit overboard at times. Still, I'm not going to play the try-them-and-see-if-they're-serious game. If there's a TFR restricting RC flight in my area I either won't fly or I'll go somewhere else to fly. I really don't need a visit from local and state law enforcement accompanied by the FBI, FAA and Secret Service. (As a former CHP dispatcher I know the drill because I've witnessed the mayhem a prank call created - my list minus the FAA since no aircraft were involved. Long story and one I really can't discuss in detail.)
