I live in North Jersey. People are losing their shit over the 'drones'. The skies here are very busy, nothing new here.

The drones seem to be nocturnal creatures. I am not aware of any daytime sightings. We have our own brand of morons here, pointing lasers at (federal crime) and trying to shoot down the drones.

There was a very similar craze during the 1960s involving "UFOs". There were reports of unidentified lights over a local reservoir and suddenly the roads were jammed with people wanting to catch a glimpse of the UFOs.

New Jersey was also where War of the Worlds radio broadcast caused hysteria in the 1930s.

Ignore the drone story for 72 hours and there will be a new shiny object to grab people's attention.
