There are no birds which fly at 100,000 feet. Unless they are wearing oxygen tanks. |

I hope your joking....I really doubt very many, if any at all fly at 60000-100000 feet. if i remember right commercial air craft only fly at or around 30000 ft, but i won't swear to it. |

But, the balloons have to travel through airspace. And, they must come down even slower as they dissipate their gas.
No worries. If an airliner goes down for no apparent reasons the Blame America First crowd (aka, self-styled freedom fighters) can start conspiracy theories about how it was struck by a military exercise gone awry. (Flight 800, »www.newsday.com/news/specials/ny···71.story)

Sure it's all fun and games until somebody puts an eye out  |
