I ofton worry about those small boats floating around near my house. I think they should be regulated more. I mean those guys can just sail anywhere they want to.

Everytime I see one of those U-Haul, Penske, Ryder, et al, rental vans driving down the street or parked at the curb I break into a cold sweat wondering how much ammoniuon nitrate and diesel oil is loaded aboard.

![]() I often worry about all the small airplanes flying around my house. No need to worry. The aviation community has a PERFECT safety record. Every plane that has taken off, has come back to earth and landed. We have never left one stranded in the sky. |

[Well, not really.....] Boats? Trucks? I worry about cars, even the small ones. My Daughter was about a 100 yards from the bomb that went off in Bali last year. That car was smaller than our subcompacts here in the states. We're gonna have to keep all the cars out of the cities and towns. Now think about how much a farmer can haul in a grain wagon and they have access to the right chemicals to do all sorts of things. I'd sure hate to live next to one of them. Oh, and we need to keep those big trucks and grain wagons out of the towns. Any one see the Penn And Teller Show on personal safety? They pretty much pointed out the futility of so much worry. Of course they gave the press and government a bit of the credit for sensationalizing it. That was the same show where they pointed out that PETA was contributing to "The Animal Liberation Front" (had the tax returns to prove it), and that PETA is using the guy who firebombed Michigan State's lab as a spokesperson who spends his time going around to grade schools talking to our kids and grand children. A guy who has been convicted numerous times and has done time for felonies. Now, wasn't that a refreshing thought?

That's not true. There are a bunch of them in the air right now. I don't know if they'll ever come down. You might insist that they will, but that's pure speculation. Some years back there was a plane that crashed into the smog around the LA Basin. It was stuck up there for weeks, they had to use helicopters with backhoes to get the pieces out, and when they ripped the smog bank, all the smog leaked out and LA had clear weather for hours.

Some folks on the other groups I read would have surely fallen over the edge in vain attempts to win the guy over to their point of you. I should post this entire thread as an example how to respond to trolls. Perhaps you have demonstrated the impact humor can have against people who take themselves and what in the news groups way too seriously. Blue skies John Pelchat |
