I find it absolutely fascinating that pilots that will cheerfully
exceed the posted speed limit (along with just about everybody else, of
course) during the drive to the gliderport will then pontificate about
minuscule infringements of vertical and lateral airspace bounderies.

Uh, guys, these are regulations, not laws of physics! You are safer at
18,300' looking out the window than at 17,700' staring at the
altimeter!

Of course, I now fully expect to be viciously flamed, but what the
hell, it's monday and it's raining....
