Yuppie 911. I laughed when I read that earlier. I don't know if the primise is true that people take more risks knowing they have a way to call for help if they get in over their head.I think that people would have found some way to get out of trouble on their own if they needed to. I think the problem is the same one that has people who have no physical impairment having handicap parking plaques, they feel entitled to use any and all services availble including calling for a helicopter rescue if they feel threatened.
