Here is a good one... The other day I had a "brain fart" (the1 can be praised fot the invention of that phrase - I like it..., anyhow it was to do with those idiots who think it is amusing and fun to shine laser beams into overflying aircraft, and the media stories of how it was fery difficult to find out who was responsible and arrest them. My thought was to make that act "shining light/laser beams at aircraft or other vehicles a prescribed terrorist act"...
I dutifully checked out the Australian Federal Police website, and no apparent way to send them a general - I am trying to be helpful email, so I got a Brisbane phone number which redirected me to a switch board in Canberra, The lass there said I should tell this to the Brisbane office - Generally said this was a "policy matter" and should be directed to the Federal Member in my electorate.

I diligently typed a letter adding that I understood that the communications act also used to have a provision whereby "illegal broadcasts" could result in the equipment used, and all that to which it was affixed could be confiscated (for good). A broadcast was defined such as to include a loud setting on the internal music system of a car. Leading to an effective way to remove many "hoons" doing wheelies and donuts on public roads (as they usually have loud music going simultaneously...

Alas and alack, my printer refused to print that letter and similarly when I converted it to a pdf file, absolutely no problems thereafter... masalai has masalai's in this computer...

So I propose to print this post and see what happens when I deliver this later...

Give all pilots mirrors... double sided ones just in case

[masalai]

In the vernacular of an imagined pilot, "I'v got one darling, in my handbag, but it is not in my cock pit" ......

What is needed I think is some small lazer guided missile (or is that miss'l) that un being hit by a lazer beam, starts up and runs down the beam exploding on contact with the generator! (it only needs to be big enough to blow the idjits hand off - he sure won't play clever bugger again!!) Guess a couple on the side of a boat would be useful - and keep us on track so to speak!

someone "targeted" a plane here once,,,dumbass was in his back yard,,bout 1/2 mile from the airport,,,he was a "little" surprised to see F.B.I. knocking at his door,,,,,hehe

[safewalrus]

Still prefer my version, saves the FBI for their real job (getting pissed!)


Saves money in court as well!

[the1much]

i had an F.B.I. at my door once,,,,,man,,,dont piss off a "Freakin.Big.Indian hehe

[Landlubber]

This is just one whole loy of crap about lazers. The silly little things that are readily available that they are trying to ban would not even be seen by an incoming aircraft, the beam is so minute. It is the press and politicianc "seeing to be doing something" that are making this crap up.

Do I smell an opportunity to licence and collect $$$$. Got your laser licence sir?

[the1much]

have you paid your laser tax this year sir? hehe
my laser can be seen by a pilot,,by coincidence i happen to live bout a 1/4 mile from a small airport,,,me and some of the pilots have special "hand gestures" we make to each other,,hehe

[safewalrus]

the Navy Helicopters that fly over my place can certainly see my hand signals! Some are that low I think they are coming in for coffee - which brings us back to "Real Men............

The bit I llike about drinking coffee is that I like mine black! You go into one of these swish coffee bars, you know the style - got a coffee machine that wouldn not be out of place at Canaveral or what ever it's called this week! Ask for a black coffee - they go ape! Just spent all that money on the machine to shake it bubble it etc and YOU WANT A STRAIGHT BLACK ONE!! Love it!!

[masalai]

Oh Safie, all I can suggest is go and get some REAL QUALITY (green beans) coffee then do a taste test - starting from mild air roast through to "burnt offering" then pick your favourite roast level

The roasting must be in air suspension so the coffee turns out evenly and not "burnt on the outside and under-roasted in the middle of the bean" - so to speak -. The air stream must be precisely temperature controlled. The cooled beans are then ground to suit your "brewing" machine type. Then, and only then, will you know what REAL coffee is all about, and know that all the other stuff is but **** on the floor of a toilet...
The main thing is the roasting and not "burning of over-cooking the outside of the FRESH beans, producing small batches each day as the flavour deteriorates over time/exposure to the air...
