telling you it was cool for a few min then it was super annoying. i find it pretty brazen to just go out in a climbing park and think that you are so special that you can make one of these things buzz arround peoples heads and that everyone should be ok with that.

Dianne Feinstein claimed to have seen a drone up close.

I assumed she was shitting.
Then she said she looked at it, which caused it to crash. That part I believe.
The "drone" pilot said it wasn't a drone, but a toy helicopter that they had so much trouble keeping aloft that they just tied it to a string, and dangled it from the roof. No camera. No Hellfire missile. Just a toy.
Never mind that, though. She's one of the deciders. And a vocal, influential one.

How bout all those noisy phuks in El Cap Meadow all screaming
"HOW DO THEY GET THE ROPES UP THERE."
And then they get back on their Harleys.

Was at the buttermilks last weekend and on a very popular formation some dork was flying the thing feet from people topping out a test peice high ball. Annoying and scary. I made to berate him mercilessly in front of his girlfriend, but that did little to deter his flights.

Does this mean that DNC will be moving office staff outside the park?

Forget the wilderness schtick. Those things are beyond damnable solely because of their threat to wildlife.

And furthermore if the Park Service wasn't run by a bunch of hypocrites they would ban all
Motorized vehicles Tuesday-Thursday to give the wildlife a break.

The drones have been appearing regularly over West Cliff and Pleasure Point in Santa Cruz getting the surfing action. First time I saw one (I wasn't surfing) it took awhile for it to register what it was. Haven't seen one in Yose yet and guess I won't. Fine with me

I seem to be the only person in the water who gives them the 1 finger salute.
