Scott-
I get where Laurie's coming from, with a desire to "do the right thing". However, in the interest of demonstrating that there are shades of gray out there, even among a group of people dedicated to doing the right thing...
(and at the risk of causing a bell-the-cat firestorm...)
...should someone point out to her that it is very illegal for private citizens to own an SR-71 Blackbird? Granted, there is a somewhat off-the-books agreement with the government about its existence, but from what I recall from the trainee files, that agreement wasn't initially in place when the plane was built.
Anyways, um, food for thought?
