Drones

At the end of the year, drones made their way into the news several times, and not in a good way.

You had what appeared to be random drones flying over parts of New Jersey, and that started a whirlwind of political puffery and conspiracy theories. You had a few drone shows that had issues - especially one in Orlando where a 7 year old boy was severely injured by a falling drone and was listed in critical condition.  And, you had a few instances of drones being flown too close to airplanes.

These drones are becoming a nuisance.  They are affordable and no doubt fun.  But they are unregulated and it turns out kind of dangerous.  

You have to wonder a bit if we might start taking them seriously before there is a bigger incident of some kind....
