I thought awhile back that if I were ever attacked and managed to knock my attacker down and unconscious for a bit, I'd use whatever I had at hand to carve an asterisk in the forehead of the person, then run and call the police. The marring of the forehead would make for easier identification later, and might spur the person to go to the ER, where it might be easier to find that person. Anyone who's read Vonnegut's _Breakfast of Champions_ ought to be able to figure it out.... Julia who'd be more inclined now to just land a number of kicks in the abdomen and groin and then get the hell out of there... _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
