[Chaos-l] Green lasers

[Mark Lerch]

I don't think so.  The way they caught the guy was a police helicopter was flying around the neighborhood and the guy flashed his laser into the cockpit.  The police then lit the house up with a bright light while forces on the ground arrested him.  It was obviously intentional and recurring.

	"I just saw where the person arrested with the green laser light is an amateur astronomer, who apparently was showing his daughter some constellations and pointing out various night sky objects, when an airplane crossed the path. The Feds busted down his door, and handcuffed him, and subjected him to an intense grilling, and he will be charged with three felony counts. I am sure that most of them couldn't tell Orion from mascara. This will be interesting as it evolves-Feds Vs. Amateur astronomers! I think that an accomodation will have to be made, otherwise, we will all be felons, and our green laser lights will be confiscated. I use my pointer frequently,  as I am sure many of you do. What to do, what to do. Stay tuned. (;-)) Ron"
