Harry, Every time the gun deal comes up, I think of playing when we were kids, "Bang" you're dead"! All those westerns on tv. Somehow I think that helped train our generation in the proper respect of firearms! There's a difference in play and real life! Nice point you made here! RAY

Mans ideas to reality to death. A Haiku more powerful than the gun, why? because it makes sense. Fine piece Harry :)
