"A short google search was actually pretty illuminating on the smell test. I agree with you even if my answer was a bit cheeky."

"No look him up everywhere he says PhD USAF(col ret.) etc.  Apparently he got his BS in electrical engineering IIRC from googling him last night but then the details end.  "

"I can't wait until cops get their own and the epic air jousting that will occur. Although maybe I just live in a city that has really bad cops so I expect them to do stuff like that. "

Profile Information

About Me:
I'm wanting to get into programming and building UAVs in that order of importance. Even though I will have to build one first.

I'm in my senior year getting a CS degree, and love the various applications that UAVs can accommodate.
