Unhappy Excuse me, would you mind not pointing lasers at airplanes?

'Excuse me, would you mind not pointing lasers at airplanes? Thanks' Excuse Me, Would You Mind Not Pointing Lasers At Airplanes? - Vocativ

Closing paragraph of her Vocativ article:'In order to rectify this growing threat (of albeit questionable severity), scientists have even developed glasses specially made for pilots in order to protect them from “laser strikes.” But as we all know, the goggles do nothing.'

I work for the FAA so I know this 'questionable' threat is real. Thought some of you may be able to share info with this 'Data Reporter' (quoted from her LinkedIn page).

Be Safe and thanks for all you do to keep us safe!!
