@realnunners I think the better suited term would be "supervillains" in most cases in reply to realnunners 01:33:22, 2014-07-18
@realnunners Is bloody silly. Understood the flight path was considered safe due to altitude, not geography. 20Kft+ isn't a warzone anymore? in reply to realnunners 01:36:01, 2014-07-18
