Stolen my idea

From Las Vegas station KXNT:
Border Patrol: Smugglers Use Cannon To Launch Cans Of Marijuana Into US
U.S. Border Patrol agents say smugglers have come up with yet another creative way to get drugs in the country � a cannon.

Authorities say 33 cans of marijuana were spotted Friday in a field near where the Colorado River crosses the U.S.-Mexico border. They believe the cans were launched about 500 feet into the U.S. using a pneumatic-powered cannon.
I had this idea a couple years ago for backpacking. Launch 40 pounds of supplies to your campsite. Targeting would be problematical but put a beeper on the cache and carry a small receiver. A hungry backpacker is a very motivated beast... Posted by DaveH at December 12, 2012 7:50 PM
