What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe Blue Angels flew again over San Francisco after fog limited their Fleet Week performance. Our panel has views. Gloria, you go first.

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorWeather limited a flying show. In my career I have seen worse limits. I have seen airports with no runway.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorNo, no, no. Fog doesn't just happen. It rolls in on purpose. It's a coordinated, wet attack on our air show.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIt's water in the air.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorThat's what the fog wants you to think.

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorDale, it's fog.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorSix jets that can break the sound barrier, beaten by a cloud that sits on a bridge and does nothing. That is a power move.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA cloud that sits and does nothing. I've worked with him.

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe pilots flew in it, and flew again. That is the professional answer. Nobody here wants to hear it.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorExit interview for the fog. Reason for leaving: it was asked to lift, and it said no. Would not rehire.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorRehire a cloud.

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorIt will burn off by noon, Dale. Fog always does.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIt'll be back Monday. Fog has no work ethic, but it has attendance.
