Uhhh, don't have anything to share, Dan... Never had any kind of a dust up
with them, and I firmly intend to keep it that way - especially, now that
they are in their post 9/11 hang the GA *******s, mode...
However, some six decades of watching other poor *******s give up their
ticket has been enlightening...

First, I flew when talking to anyone on the radio was a special event...
And I managed to blunder my way around the country without their 'help' and
I still can... Second, ATC is of no use to a VFR flight, so putting yor
tail number in the front of their minds is a no win scenario for you - you
don't get an attaboy for not making an error, and you get hung if they even
suspect that was you who clipped their airspace...
Third, the airspace has become so complex, especially with TFR's popping up
all over the place every time some sports team decides to play, or some
promoter puts on an auto race, that your odds of breaking the "rules" is way
higher than you can calculate...

Example: The controller will not tell you that XYZ University is playing
that day he doesn't have a clue as you blithely fly overhead with vfr
flight following, but he will use your recorded radar track/tail-number to
hang you after the fact - so why in the heck, would you deliberately set
yourself up like that? It boggles my mind... Do you also sit on your seat
belt and pet rattlesnakes?

must suppose you base that opinion on experience. Care to share it?
