Nevada Governor to Bill Fossett Widow For Search

Posted by timothy on from the don't-forget-to-tip-your-searcher dept.

sonchat writes with news that Nevada's "Gov. Jim Gibbons intends to bill the widow of missing multimillionaire adventurer Steve Fossett for $687,000 the state spent in searching for the famed aviator last fall, a spokesman said." Though in some places charging for the cost of a search effort is routine, apparently in Nevada it is not.

    Yeah, and it's 16Mpg in city driving. "Brilliant design" indeed. My car gets 3 times that.
