According to all statistics I've ever seen or heard, the USA is pretty much "a gun-battling place". Statistics? Or TV shows? Guns are rarely used, even in the US. Very rarely. (rarely is a relative term, yes, they're used more than in say, Sweden) And their rates of use are going DOWN. Not up. Down. This isn't the popular image projected by the media, I realise. There's not a showdown on Every Main Street, Every Day, as Ashton portrays, nor does the NRA (or anybody else) advocate one. Addison

Yes, I *get* the irony. The Irony is that you don't. :) - (addison) - (28) - July 10, 2001, 10:43:39 AM EDT

Plan B, we'll retreat to the rave-cave and hope our tribal beats and epiliptic movements will cause the machines to commit suicide due to sheer irritation.
