Minority, schminority ... if anyone is in the minority *here* it's probably me, as a veteran. (I'm about to conduct a quickie non-njc poll to ask how many jmdlers have been in the military ... anyone opposed?) > Military types don't ease my mind.

All I can say to that (in my deepest, butchest voice) is: OOOH-RAH ! ; ) I know what you mean, Jim -- and don't you see lots of cops who are the same way? Scary. But pilots and electronics techs and medical people in the military, for the MOST part, are not "ate up" with all things martial. (Of course, those types tend to not stay in the service for very long, either.) There are plenty of peace-lovin' hippie types in the armed services ... believe me! Until the piss test to detect weed was perfected, many many many people in uniform toked their way through their time in service. And after we couldn't get away with that anymore, we switched to the virtually (still) undetectable next best alternative: vitamin A (el-es-dee). >; ) Lori (alumnus of *Altered State*) ~ New!
