Art, as moderator of the list, is it possible to provide a little guidance
here and suggest that this topic has been discussed sufficiently, and put
out a request to refrain from posting anymore on this subject? Not
censorship mind you, but a little nudge in the right direction which is done
by the moderators of many lists when the discussion on a topic has reached
this point.
You are respected by all for the fine work you do as moderator of the list.
I am sure a word or two from you could put this to bed as far as the list
goes.
Then everyone could continue to discuss their views on this topic to each
other off list.
Thank you for your consideration of this request.

Subject: [meteorite-list] Guns
Lots of chatter on this. Please forgive this semi -off topic post.
I am not making a "soap box triade " here. And for the record, I too grew
up with guns as my Dad was a big hunter ( but I never liked killing
anything so I never was a hunter). I do however own a pistol and a rifle,
for whatever that has to say.
About 2 years ago, my wife went to a local Firehouse Sandwich in a VERY
"resectable" part of town at roughly 8:30 pm to get my 2 sons some late
supper. The next thing I knew, my phone rang from that place. The voice on
the phone said my wife was OK (thank God) but they had just been robbed by
two armed "men". My wife had been forced to get down on her knees while
a "man" held a gun to her head while the robbery was taking place. My life
could have ended right there along with her's but thank God they did't
pull the trigger! I have to say that after that, it entered my mind that I
wished guns had NEVER been invented.
