It's important to "get" pop cultural references, and Hee Haw was definitely pop culture when it was on TV in the '70's. Plus, Barbi Benton and some other nice ladies were regulars.

Nice post Carl. Unfortunately some people will continue to insist that the new laws apply to model rockets in spite of the facts. Mario |

First of all, what is the age stated on model rockets? secondly, there is a company in North carolina who makes wooden toys/products that the feds came after and made them test those products at $4000 per testt. Naatural wood, that makes no sense. And, you don't know down the line what the feds are going to do, and, what their interpritation is. It's better to be safe than sorry and lose everything because of these laws. Ask Mattel, 2007 how many items did they have to pull around Christmas, f rom what I understand, it was them who pushed for this law to impose on other because of their losses. One last thought, just because a product is intended for a specific age group what's to say that anyone either older or younger will be using that product? |

Sure, but Carl was quoting the CPSC's own regulations, which they obviously should be following.

Are we getting to the point that we have idiots creating legislation to protect idiots from themselves? Oh what a vicious circle......
I guess eventually marbles can't be any smaller than a softball so they can't be swallowed.

Your correct on that one, the only ones to make out on this are lawyers and judges. And, if you contact the CPSC, their take on HR4040 is much different than those of a lay person. You just can't beat the feds no matter what, if they say the sky is green, you better shake you head yes and forget it, as we all know they are wrong. What about the ATF and high power motors, they say one thing while everyone else says something else, bottom line REGULATIONS and lawsuits. |

The feds will interpret the laws for their own benefit,and those of lawyers. How about the classification on motors that said "Toy Propellant Devices"? We can debate the CPSCHR4040 issue until we are blue in the face, but, if the feds decide otherwise, watch out. With the feds using up all of their money in the stimulis package, they need to look elsewhere for funding. |

So far Barbi Benton is the only reference to Hee Haw I do get and it's not from watching the show.
