"There have been various reports of sporting goods stores in California marketing PLB's and SPOT's in place of avalanche transceivers."
Why do I find such a statement, on a politically hot topic, by a government employee, problematic. The smartest govt operatives spread the rumors to a tight group, who actually do the spreading to the public.
"CLMRG has had various reports of links to Al Queda". Please prove this statement is not true.
Maybe we are going the way of the Soviets........
