This theory supports an incident that happened when I was still living at home. My family was gathered in the living room and kitchen when lightning must have struck our house (or close by). We each saw ball lightning appear before us at varying distances, but always in whatever direction each of us was looking. We weren't seeing the same instance of the phenomenon. Mine appeared about 20 ft away and moved a short distance before disappearing. My mom's appeared outside the window she was facing.
So you're saying that nobody should have to implement security standards that the government issues? What would happen if the airlines or other vulnerable operations refused to follow security standards, or just came up with their own? I don't think unfunded mandates are the real problem. It's more an issue of setting unrealistic goals and vastly underestimating the costs involved.
As long as the costs are realistic, it's actually better to have unfunded mandates since there's less levels of government that the money has to go through!

Except for maybe that 200,000 degree F at the termination shock. What a bitch! I really do wonder how that isn't a problem for Voyager 2.
