Don't complain about reanimated threads - for two reasons.

A) Neal did the voodoo dance to bring this one back, so YES SIR, ONKEL STEVENS

B) Title tells us to "forget zombies"

The Federal Aviation Administration took the initial steps Thursday toward introducing privately operated unmanned aircraft into the heavily populated U.S. skies, issuing two documents it hopes will pave the way for manned and unmanned aircraft to co-exist.

New and mysterious drones sighted casing French landmarks and nuclear plants.

“The aim of these flights may simply be to demonstrate that the authorities are incapable of responding to these threats, which could become real in a few years,” he said. “Drones are not a problem today but in a few years they will be, when drone technology develops and they will have much more capacity to carry things like explosives.”


I wonder how many sticks of dynamite a drone like these can carry...

Plastic explosive might give you more bang per pound.

Default Surprised this has took so long in coming.

Hopefully laws will be passed to prevent or at least deal this happening as quickly as possible before the idiots and terrorists latch on...
