SkyTag, best aircraft tag laser..

I finally got my SkyTag green laser light. This thing is great, USB adapter to plug into your laptop or PC, set the SkyTag in your window or better yet on the roof of your house on your laptop. It's built in GPS locates itself and tracks any incoming aircraft.

I have to say, the laser is VERY bright and is visible up to 22 miles by the naked eye. You need a internet connection, 56k will do since the flight data is pretty well compact, most hourly recordings under 1mb. I'm on multiple T3 so I am able to download weekly paths (minus small aircraft schedules) at a time.

Working it is a breeze and it's very neat to watch it rotate, find and tag any aircraft, you would very surprised how much aircraft travels over your home without your knowledge. Price is $150 via thinkgeek.com which is the lowest I have found it, for anyone interested check it out:

The FBI doesn't call people in Florida from their DC offices about USENet posts. Had he said his LOCAL office called, that would have been different.

Indeed. To bad the neocons don't know a good joke when they hear it. Like everything else, it has to be spoon fed with disclaimers.

wow I had no idea the neocons would flip out so much, I should have known. Pretty funny. At least a few people enjoyed it. If you would have read the legal information button on the website the site would describe to you that it was an April FOOLS joke. I thought it was obvious since pointing lasers at planes is obviously stupid.

From the site:

"Seriously though, ThinkGeek does NOT condone or endorse shooting lasers at airplanes. Not only is it illegal, it's really, really stupid. This product is an April Fools joke, it's not real, and we hope it never is. Thanks, and back to your regularly scheduled fun."

We all had fun with this on other MSG Boards and got into discussion about the use of these things, too bad some of you guys in here walk around with sticks up your asses.
