If we are going to put reflective tape on, perhaps there is a reason to do so, and if so, perhaps the most visible of colors should be used. That would be optic green, not red.
But hey, let's just rely on memory, and the knowledge that "scanner=gate".

I've never hit a gate, and I've never come close to hitting a gate. But I have noticed that certain gates at certain times of day are hard to see.
That would have been an ideal suggestion for you to bring to the PWAC meeting this past Monday. Maybe next month.
