Idiots are inherently bad. "Stupidity is the only universal crime ..." (or something) -- Lazarus Long These incidents will continue to happen only while we have dangerous weapons AND dangerous people. They are not at all independent, so don't bother getting rid of just one of them. As one who has been shot and lived to tell of it, I probably should be against guns. But you know my position. If you don't agree with me, who cares? Nobody is going to change anybody else's mind in this discussion. I am just becoming nauseous, and would like to see and end to this. Let's flame about something worthwhile, like IBM mainframes. -- john -- aka John Dilley, [ihnp4] !hpfcla!jad. "Please don't murder me"
