And this is how you ruin your perfectly good setup.... tell people about it. Now every kook and get-rich-quick wannabe will descend on NY's streets looking for dropped jewelery and whatnot with metal detectors you would expect to see at the beach and leave this guy with nothing except competition. Loose lips do what, again?

That's quite queer. Thanks for etymology.

Holy shit! Christ died??!!

I was about to side with the kids on this until I read TFA. They called him a pedophile... screw these kids, expel 'em!

2 things you never throw around lightly: Pedophile & Rape.

Welcome to the Incorporated States of America. The Pledge of Allegiance will now be an EULA that school children will be forced to scroll through and click "Agree" on every morning for 12 years.

more importantly, will they be able to taxi them without dinging the wing tips, the nosecone, and/or the tail?? and do the pilots sit way forward, almost nose-to-HUD with a vacant expression on their face?

That only works with Landlines. On a cell phone, unless you repeatedly call 911 OR the operator can hear some sort of disturbance in the background, AND have a Wireless Phase 2 phone, you won't see any cops.
The fact is, with as many 911 butt dials that are received, and the uncertainty of location of silent cell phone callers, cops are not going to be bothered with hunting them down.
2 cool stories: 1) I got a call on 911 from a cell phone where the guy was shouting into the phone his address over and over and would state that he's not sure if this is working because his clam-shell phone was split in two by his boyfriend. I sent units to that address and the guy apologized and said nothing was going on, everything was fine, he just panicked a little. Point? It doesn't matter what an operator hears, it's what the cop finds when he gets there. and 2) Using Wireless Phase 2, another operator and I tracked an open line 911 call throughout the city while listening to a conversation about wanting to go buy crack, buying the crack, and discussing where to smoke the crack. Once they parked at the cemetery, we sent a unit to investigate. Unit approached and asked what they were doing. Short discussion later, unit asks if either has a cell phone on them and if they would take a look at it. "Aw shit" was the last thing we heard. Unit couldn't search them for drugs because he didn't have justification, even though they were on a recorded line during the deal. Again, doesn't matter what we hear, it's what they witness when they get there.

I was trying to quote Jack Black in High Fidelity. "Rob, top five musical crimes perpetuated by Stevie Wonder in the '80s and '90s. Go. Sub-question: is it in fact unfair to criticize a formerly great artist for his latter day sins, is it better to burn out or fade away?"

Sub-question: is it better to burn out or fade away?

NO. I expect them to exact revenge.
