If we are worried about the government using them against humans, do we really want more of them flying around?

I haven't flown it quite yet but I look forward to invading someone's privacy :)

Looks like you have the potential for local entrepreneurship, though!  Papa Howavi's?   :D

So, um, just out of curiosity, how long would it take a drone to deliver a deep dish pizza from say Chicago to, oh I don't know, say Chippewa Falls, WI?   ???

Just curious is all.

I'm guessing that will depend on your choice of toppings and type of crust ordered.  Deep dish with double cheese and extra sausage would be about a week and it might not be warm when it arrives.   ;D

Maybe I just listen to the stories? In all seriousness the beach we go to is way more about the stories than the looks, not saying I haven't moved my sunglasses once or twice.
