Lake Hood, located just south of Stevens International Airport in Anchorage, is reputed to be the world's busiest floatplane airport.
There's an article today mentioning that Lake Hood's manager of seaplane operations is going to spend $550,000 to a) re-route the jogging trail around the lake, and b) install traffic gates on the taxiways.
Why?
Because those areas are now clogged with sufficient numbers of joggers, cyclists, and mothers pushing strollers so as to pose a threat to aviation.
Seriously.
How hard is it to not walk in front of a plane with its propeller(s) turning? I mean, do we need to provide classes in this?
And if the sheeple are that thick, would we expect the classes to work?
Psalm 22:27-28: “All the ends of the world shall remember and turn to the Lord, and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. For the kingdom is the Lord's, and he ruleth among the nations.”

I don't know. The current situation sounds like Darwinism in practice.
You're probably right - I guess they're competing for a Darwin award, although the "mothers with strollers" aren't eligible.
Wow - and I thought all the idiots were down here. You've got a "few" too. They don't know to stay out of the way of planes??? LOL
Unfortunately, 60% or more of Anchorage's population is from "down there" ... and they've mistaken stubbornness for the independent frontier spirit they've heard about. The frontier spirit means taking responsibility for their own actions ... a concept unfamiliar to these transplants.
Rev. this is our "Greenies" at work!
They think they own Anchorage!
Yeah, I've noticed that. Maybe they'll get annoyed enough to go back home.
Rev. as much as I wish... I have a feeling they are trying to stay.
to many pine cones to eat.
