Several bits of idiocy here:

(1) Doing it at 10 am Monday morning, and freaking out all the people working in lower Manhattan, rather than at 7am Sunday when most people would be asleep and not notice it.

(2) Not notifying the media, police, etc at least 24 hours ahead of time, so they could tell people on the prior night's evening news "This is gonna happen, don't freak".

(3) Couldn't this "photo op" have been done more cheaply using computer imaging, rather than tie up 3 expensive jets?

I am glad I “refreshed” the thread...I too was thinking why couldn’t the jet be photoshopped w/the Statue of Liberty?

(4) This is the same administration trying its best to force global warming/carbon footprint hysteria on us.

When I worked at BP America, our mailroom would test for bombs.
They did bomb tests where a package would be rigged to look like a bomb on X-Ray. The worker was supposed to spot it before it made it up on the floors.

One time a lady on the 39th (law) floor opened a box to find what looked like a bomb inside. EMS had to be called for her.

Now, how stupid was it to....

1. Not put a note in saying it was a test bomb
2. Not call to the recipient saying a test was being done.

This is the same thing.

-Sounds like practice or to get the gist of public reaction. —I don’t think they need a rocket scientist to figure it out-
Terrible thing to do...

Yeah, not to mention this crowd wants US TO CONSERVE. Hypocrites! Unreal, stupid, inane, wasteful, hypocritical. It’s hard to even believe it!
