I just transfered from the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and while there my Microprocessor Systems Professor who took me in shared with me information of the UAV project that he was starting.
The following was the information about the UAV he planned:
-It will be small, the craft being a helicopter
-It would be cheap. $15k ($7k - Helicopter, $8k Electronics)
-Price to public would be $50k-$75k
-It would be easy to fly & user friendly. Requiring NO pilot training. Would be similar to flying a video game airplane.
-Allowing for single-user operation. With high level command structure.
-Object-oriented design with much more robust software to ensure it won't fail like the Predator in combat.
-Includes GPS & Video for non-combat survillance work.
Most people in the Aviation field laughed at him after making most of these statements including the price. Unfortunately, they don't understand his background and full knowledge of the field. After being a Microprocessor Engineer for Texas Instruments and Intel he took a liking to flying and started an aviation business for UAV flight control system in 1994. His knowledge and abilities will be make it able for him to help the students of Embry-Riddle create the UAV despite the many people who continue to laugh in his face!
If you knowingly did nothing wrong, then why would you withold your license? For the principle of the thing? It would make so much more sense to show your ID to save from paying $250 especially if you know you did nothing wrong. The police officer has every right in this case to demand the ID and arrest him if he doesn't give some sort of identification.
Yahoo Mail is extremly good as far as canning the whole spam issue. For as long as I can remember, all of the spam I ever receieved went straight to my Bulk Mail folder. Good job Yahoo!

Guys, its time to pack up and move to... India!
Can I download that anti-piracy logo anywhere? I'd love to get it tattoo'd to my ass!
No. If he didn't have one, then he could have said that and the officer would have handled it differently.
At least the lower courts agree with me!

Obviously he's not a big pr0n fan who has a huge pr0n database!

Yeah, what makes it harder is that for a few extra bucks, they can use servers in China or Russia to do all the spamming for them.
Yeah, knowing them they hired someone special to watch these forums to see who says what in hopes to track someone down who knows something!
